Orvis makes some nice stuff that are not too pricey. Cabela's brand Flyrods are nice too. When you go to Cabela's, WHATEVER You Do, DO NOT pick up one of the Sage brand Flyrods.
If you do do it's all over and you will spend $600 bucks on just one little 3 weight Flyrod that ways just slightly over 1 ounce! Don't ask me how I know! wink

For small streams and also fly fishing in my stock tanks here at the Ranch, I prefer a 7.6' 3wgt graphite rods. For big rivers and big Rainbows & Brownies, I prefer a 9.6 " 5wgt graphite rod.

As I warned you, it gets addicting real fast and can get really expensive in a hurry.
If your a rifle looney, Fly Fishing is bad news And will put a major dent in your wallet cool
