Normal fly fishing is much better. I've been doing it since I was ten so I'm not new to it LOL

Trout are pretty smart creatures so it's all about working a pool in a river. A lot of line out and working it back in. No two parts of the river are the same etc.

Casting is easy enough, it's all about presenting the fly to the trout in a manner that they will take it is the tricky part.

A good way to start is to get a suitable fly fishing rod, reel, and (sinking or floating) line. Then practice in the sea. Sea fish are not as smart as trout so you can learn your skills on the easy stuff and see some results sooner.

I even go fly fishing from my stand up paddle board. It's lots of fun.
