Just getting into fly fishing

[sagedave]

Anything to get out on the water will work. But I don't think you can go wrong with the RLS + combo in a 5 wt from Cabelas. It is a great set up that will last you many years and the reel is fantastic. I do have a Walmart rod as a back up and loaner and it works, but a decent rod makes a big difference. It was on sale yesterday for $179 and I have seen ti as low as $150, rod, reel, rod case, fly line, and I think leader which you will want to replace.
