8-9 weight rod and reel combo. weight forward floating line. 30 lb dacron backing. 17lb flourocarbon leader. pick up some merkin crab pattern flys, epoxy spoon flies, bead eye clousers, and deceivers. ive recently got into fly fishing for reds, and i tell you what, you will never want to pick up a conventional rod and reel again once you land one on the fly.
