I have no fly shops near me and I don't know anybody that fly fishes. I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos.
1. I don't know what rod / reel combo I need. I don't want to break the bank, but I don't mind spending some money if I need to. I will be traveling and flying with this so nothing outrageously expensive.
2. I will be fishing streams in East TN/N GA/NC and the Ozarks with the occasional trip out west once a year. So mostly trout but I do have a farm pond with everything in it that I can practice in.
3. I'm looking at ordering a combo pack to start with but not sure on length or weight. Should I order from a fly shop or order from Cabela's / Bass Pro or another big box store?

Looking at these 3 right now but I'm open to suggestions. Not sure about Orvis but the TFO has a no-fault lifetime warranty. I have many more questions, but I will take it one step at a time. Can anybody point me in the right direction?
