Hey, I think you should take a look at some of the combo packs from Cabelas. There are some very affordable options listed that would be great for a beginner.
The type of fishing you plan on doing should determine what type of outfit you purchase. If you plan on hitting big rivers or lakes, then the 9 foot 5 weight is probably your best bet. If you plan on only dry fly fishing in small streams, then maybe look at a 7 foot 3 weight. Just like everything else in this world, it all depends. I would probably go with the 9 footer though because it's still effective on smaller waters, just a little more cumbersome.
Check Cabelas though.
