Cabelas is having a sale on there LST fast action fly rods and giving away there new fly reel as a promo.  The reel is a large arbor disc drag RLS model.  I just went to cableas yesterday and liked the reel, so I bought the rod and got the reel for free.  It has 3 models, a 3/4wt 5/6wt and 7/8wt.  If your going to start with something affordable this is a good deal.  The rod cost $180 and the reel sold seperately goes for $145.

I have never fly fished the salt either.  I just bought an Okuma Intergrity I 10/11 and a Pflueger IM-8 PT90-10 at the show in Somerset the other day.  The reel is all set with backing, line, and leader.  The guy even thru in a few flies and a carrying case. Total price $150.

Can't wait to give it a try.

I like to stalk with the fly rod during the summer.  Look for birds working and watch for those dark clouds in the surf.  Cast to the back and walk along with the bait ball, pretty cool stuff.
