I was introduced to fly fishing this week on a trout trip to Roaring River was a couple coworkers. They solely fly fish and around the campfire they talked me into putting down my spinning rod and giving it a try. After some coaching I was able to roll cast well enough to get lucky enough to hook up with a few Rainbows over the last few days. Now I have the fever and want to go down that rabbit hole. It will be used for trout in Missouri and probably bluegills and such as well to get more experience. The set up I used was an 8'6"-5 weight rod. Just a cheap back up rig one of the guys had. I am looking to spend $300-400 and obviously want the best bang for my buck. Thanks for reading and a bigger thanks for any advice.
