Get a nicer rod like a Loomis pro 4x you will be much happier.

Not saying you won't get a good answer here but you might consider posting your question on the fly fishing section as well.

I personally don't like the new redington rise as it is a large arbor reel now. I have the original one and it's great I love it. Orvis has the exact model even the spools fit it is tha access mid arbor. Like I said really like it for trout. As for rods check out echo. Great rods at a great price even better warranty.

If it were my choice, Hardy ultralite DD and Greys XF2 or GX50.

Don't rule out a Greys reel either, they're great for the price.

and pick yourself up a good nymph line (aggressive taper) like airflo super-dri Mend, you'll thank me when you're chucking streamers and 2 or 3 nymph rigs.

BVK all the way - best value for the $$ anywhere.
