3 things.
1. Buy a good line first. Crucial for fly fishing. Rio Products Gold line is a great line.
2. the less amount you spend on your first setup, the more you'll spend on the next one when you realize its not meeting your needs
3. Stay away from rod/reel combinations. Usually the rod is alright, but you'll lose money on the reel, because you'll want to get rid of it asap. A half decent reel, is nice to have.
As for the rod, i'd buy a tfo lefty kreh signature series, as for a reel, anything around the 100$ mark will be alright.
