A decent 6 wt package is a good place to start for most new flyfishers. I agree with JReed about the line... a good line and a mediocre line can make the difference between enjoying a new sport and just becoming frustrated. Concentrate more on the rod and line... for many freshwater applications, the reel is simply used to store your line, so you don't need to spend a lot on it necessarily.
I think that Temple Fork Outfitters (TFO) offer some pretty decent gear if you're just getting started.
