Congrats on becoming a flyfisher
Chartreuse /white is excellent ; 5" or 6" flies an all white fly works. Black or black /white Black is a good nite color also in dirty water. Intermediate fly line is fine.
Waders- Hope you got the ones with the felt soles. Rubber soles are no good around Cape Ann. You may want to invest in a pair of korkers and they have metal cleats for on the rocks.
Wading Belt-That is a must Has saved many a person from drowning. The Merrimac always claims one or two people in waders
Rocks- Be very carefull on the black slime. Even when dry Black slime has a wicked reputation for cracked heads and dislocated shoulders and an orcasional death.
Good Luck! ! !
