Default Recommendations for 6wt fly rod under $200

Had a great trip with my son and my brother to Yellowstone! However...
I lost the tip of my 30-yo fiberglass pack rod hiking to Grebe Lake
so...

I would like to replace it with a 4-pc 6wt but I can't spend much more
than about $200 dollars. I have been told something about a Temple
professional and a Scott but I don't really know those names and I
can't afford Loomis or Sage that I know of so any and all help is
appreciated.


If you had a fiberglass rod, be careful about the stiffness of the new
graphite rods. Look at the Orvis catalog (online if you don't have a
store). They rate each rod with a stiffness rating, so you can find one
that suits you.
