ive never fly fished before but i have the opportunity to try it out,after reading club rules i wanted to check to see if use of fly rods are allowed on club waters,and whether use of flies constitutes a "floating bait"
i dont want to fall foul of club rules so thought i better ask before i buy,assuming i get on ok fly fishing!
thanks
use of fly rods?

This question has come up before, the outcome was that most of our venues are not suitable(for most part a decent space is needed for the backcast) and at any of the venues that don't allow floating baits then dry flys would not be allowed.
However on venues where space is suitable fishing sunken nymph wet flys or lures would be ok as long as care is taken regarding other anglers at the venue.
Although most coarse fish CAN be caught on the fly in reality its pretty much a waste of time and perch,pike and chub are the only truly viable quarry.
I M H O. Its best kept for trout venues or occasionaly floater fishing for carp at suitable venues.
