Fly rod and reel recommendations

[Michael Joyce]

Hi all,

I’ve fly fished previously in the UK, but now I am planning to get into saltwater fly fishing in WA, just joined the club also.
I have a Greys 9wt rod that I used in the UK for trout and was planning to use this inshore around Perth for snapper/skippy etc from my boat. Would this be suitable and what model reel would be recommended for such fishing?

I would also like to get a lighter rod/reel for use in the Swan/Mandurah for flathead/herring etc. Again recommendations on rod/reel would be appreciated.

Also any advice on where to buy fly gear for the above in Perth.

Cheers,
Michael
