‘Fly Fishing Line’

in fly fishing, what is the significance in matching the weight of the fly line to the weight of the fly rod?

and what resultant difficulties would arise if the wrong weight fly line (either too heavy or too light) was matched with the wrong weight fly rod?

Fly fishing line.?

Thinking about buying this fly line today so I bought it and about a dozen flys from Bass Pro Shops. Has anybody used this line before?

What is the smallest size fly this fly fishing line use?

I am a beginner in fly fishing and am looking for my first rod, I think i can found a good one but I want to catch panfish and am wondering what is the smallest fly a 230 grain line (it is in a outfit, http://www.reelflyrod.com/product.sc?productId=1032&categoryId=133) and I am worried that the smallest flies it can use would be too small for some fish’s mouths and that would be kind of a waste of money.

Can someone recommend a good fly fishing line?

I am a beginner at fly fishing and am going to be using a 5 wt. rod and fish for mainly bass and bluegill. I think I have found a good line but it is a 6 wt. bass bug line and I am wondering if this would work alright and if there is anything better. Also I am wondering what the heaviest fly a X4 leader could use before it starts to make casting hard. Thanks.
