Noob asks: Is Pat Holmes "Iron" rig story a good way to 'get started'? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

IRon is probably the most fun way to catch fish, and you don't need but two rods to fish all day, but I would become proficient with it before I considered leaving everything else at home. If you are new to fishing and want to keep it simple bring some bait as suggested, 1 rod for dropper loop, and one for fly lining. You'll be set. Then you just have to find the fish. The first thing you need to figure out is what species you are going to be fishing for. That will help you with bait, equipment and location selection.
