Good pike fishing fly rod
 
About a week ago I ordered an eight weight fly rod off line but later
found out that they had run out of stock of the product. I was just
wondering if anyone knew of a cheap flyrod/reel for under 150 dollars

Temple Fork makes some great fly rods and they have an unconditional
warranty that comes with. I hate to say, but I have used it 3 times
already.

My 8 wt is a Temple Fork and I like it a lot. The rod alone was about
$150, but the whole outfit ran about $300.

For less expensive outfits check BassPro or Cabelas. Their outfits
aren't all that bad. A little on the softer side (good), but a touch
heavy (bad). I also have had very good luck with Cortland beginner
outfits. I got them for my kids, but I fish them too and they're not
half bad. The Cortland Factory Store (on the web or in Cortland off
I81) may have a good deal on a left over outfit.

The beginning fly rod outfits from regular fishing stores/makers are
decent. They are designed to make fly fishing easy and fun so that you
buy a better outfit someday. However, a discount store (i.e. WalMart)
outfit can drop below the too cheap line. Although, WalMart may carry
the Orvis beginner outfit.

I just picked up a 7wt rod from Orvis for bass and pike. They have had
some pretty good rod sales lately and dtheir guarantee is impeccable.
