Canadian Tire sells TFO Rod & Reel combos already strung with backing and floating fly line. They have the same lifetime warranty as buying it at any sporting goods store. I would most likely choose the 5 weight 9 foot model, heavy enough to cast in the wind but light enough for small creeks and small fish. As for Flies, right now wholesale sports in Calgary is selling them for $1.00 each (usually $2.25) not sure about the Edmonton store. If not, click on the link above in the advertising area for Ickyflyworks.ca. There the same price all the time but have a 10% off deal for first time buyers. Good luck!!!
