No additional end tackle is used, with all your casting weight being inside the special "Flyline" used (which is more like Washing line than normal Monofilament fishing line), additional casting power is provided by the action of the special "fly rod", and special "flycasting" techniques used to put your fly out to where you want it.

The rods & lines used can be easily matched both with each other + the task required thanks to the "AFTM" (American Fly-Fishing Tackle Manufacturers) rating system, with AFTM#1 being the lightest (usually for fishing small streams for small trout of around 8oz) while an AFTM#10-12 is used for Salmon Fishing, Pike fly fishing + Tropical Saltwater fly fishing. The most commonly recommended for those starting this kind of fishing being a half way AFTM #5/6 or AFTM #6/7.
