Fly Rods

Whats a good Fly Fishing Rod to learn on that's reasonably priced?

I'm a first timer and i really want to learn how to do fly fishing but the thing is i really know nothing.... i live in the Northwest so what would be a good rod for the fish here and what are some things that i should look for in a rod an information will be super helpful since i genuinely know nothing... thanks for all the help i appreciate it!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that you might be chasing steelhead with your rig or maybe some bass. If thats the case, I would suggest an 8 wt outfit. I posted a link to a 9' 8 wt. pre-rigged outfit. It's Redington's entry level rod. It comes pre-spooled with backing,weight forward floating fly line,(weight forward floating is the most popular style.) and a 9 ' leader. A good choice for a beginner. You may want to upgrade in a couple years when you find out if fly fishing is something you may want to pursue. I think you'll like it alot. Until then, this is a very forgiving rod. It will serve you well.

There are several others if thats not quite what you are looking for.

Rather than post all the links up, just go ahead and browse my site and feel free to ask any questions you want. It's no problem. Your question here is just a bit vague.

Whichever rod you choose, I wish ya all the luck.
Just remember..---you are casting the line and not the actual fly.
---learn your knots(albright knot, blood knot, improved clinch knot).
---keep your wrist still, cast with your forearm, and cast at a ten o'clock--two o'clock position. Your cast should actually be a large oval and not a directly back and forth plane. Cant your arm out slightly on the backcast. This way the line won't cross over itself resulting in a "Tailing Loop".

Try those tips to begin with. You have a bit of homework to do there. Those tips will pay off, believe me.
