Nice, flyfishing is ubber relaxing...lots of nature and taking in sights, sounds and smells. Even a crap day ito fish is a good day on the water of you know what i mean Ok on to your question....equipment wise, you really dont need the best of the best to start. Technique and knowledge is far more important than the latest sage rod. In gauteng you can hit some stockie trout ponds all around the cradle are. But know this, stockie bashing will loose its flavour very quickly. You will then turn to yellowfish on the vaal. Below the barage(on the barage road) there are lots of venues....geelvis paradys, silwerstrome, arendsnes, eendekuil....all the way to parys(elgro river lodge). The nice thing about fishing for yellows is that you actually have to understand your quarry, at first they seem ubber hard to catch, because you are probably using troot tactics and beautifull river runs through it casts...yellows laugh at this. You need to do a bit of homework on the topic and if you can get someone with knowledge to show you the ropes. As for kit...5 weight, 9,5 - 10 ft, floating line(get the best you can afford), roll of maxima green to tie leaders and a roll of 3x tippet should be ok for now. Don't spend big money on a reel, they just hold line...
