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.

Walmart has some good cheap flyrods. look on the bottom half and some
will say #6. dont matter what color it is as all colour rods will catch
fish. You could always spraypaint it if you dont like it.


I don't mean to start the whole Walmart sucks thing again (but they do :-),
but here goes. I bought a Scientific Anglers rod from them a few years ago,
before I quit going there. I am a very novice fly caster and I can tell you
those low end rods from Walmart are the worst rod of any kind I have ever
used. There are plenty of economy rods out there that would be better worth
your money. Again, St. Croix has some nice casting rods and combos in the
price range Michael is looking for. Orvis too.
