Willy, i'm thinking more in terms of like a 10 weight rod. i'm probably gonna go strictly salt. go for blues and bass up here and maybe try tarpon down south. I've seen some of the prices on the high end stuff. unbelievable. gonna have to save up. there's a bunch of stuff I need before I can take up a new endeavor.

CTT, a 10 wt fly rod is very difficult to operate. I suggest you find an el cheapo freshwater fly rod at a flea market or yard sale and learn the techniques before you spend the cash for a big saltwater rig only to get discouraged your first few times out.
My first flyrod was a 6 1/2 foot southbend that I spent countless hours with in the front yard learning to operate.

Have to agree with Randleman, start with a mid-weight get comfortable then move to heavier. Been fly fishing for years and recently got a 9wt. TFO saltwater rod and reel and even tho it casts great it is a pretty good workout to get any range and I have yet to use in any wind.
