Quick take
An 8-foot 5/6 weight fly rod and reel starter kit with pre-loaded line, 28 assorted flies, tools and a carrying case for learning to fly fish.
This is a complete fly fishing starter outfit built around an 8-foot, 4-piece carbon fiber rod with a spare tip and an aluminum reel that comes spooled with backing, fly line and leader. A box of flies, a few basic fly tools and a carrying case round out the kit, so a first-timer can head to the water without piecing gear together. The 5/6 weight setup suits trout, small bass and panfish.
