[QUOTE="Flyboy, post: 717537, member: 91"] Without paying Orvis prices, I'm very fond of my Redington rod. I don't recall the model offhand--I think it's a Wayfarer, but I'd have to check--but it has been very good to me. For trout, a 5-6 weight is the norm. I went with the 6wt because I get out west from time to time (Snake and Wind Rivers in WY, to name two), so the heaver rod helps cut the wind. I also went with the 5-piece because when I go, I usually fly light aircraft, so the short pack length is very helpful. For a reel, I have a Teton Tioga that I love. Very smooth disc drag and plenty of line capacity. I couldn't tell you the cost on that outfit, as it was a gift from my dad, but I know it's not exorbitant. He bought something similar for himself. Now I just need to get him down here from Dayton to come use it. [/QUOTE]
