Hello.

i need advice on buying a fly rod/reel combo for use on our semi-annual backpacking trips to the smoky mt nat'l park.

this may, we will be doing a 3 day 2 night hike on the south end of the park around eagle/hazel creek. i figured that it would be a good excuse to buy a fly rod/reel.

it needs to packable. i'd like to keep the cost under $150.

any advice on specific models and where to buy is greatly appreciated as this will be my first fly rig.
