another option to consider is cabela's rods. I am not sure who manufactures them but they are a great starter rod and cast well. You can get a combo from them on sale for a really good deal, plus they include backing and a quality SA line with them. I think you guys are getting a store soon as well, and the warranty can't be beat. If they no longer carry the model you need replaced, they just give you store credit to get a new one - and a lot of times the store credit is more than what you even paid for it originally. I have the RLS reel and it is fantastic.
