Does anyone know where a good place to pickup a 3 or 4 piece 3-WT fly rod for under $75.00? I have my 5WT right now and love it, but want to take it down a few notches and really have some fun with these 12-15" bows. Any suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks...KTK

Check out the Wal Mart.They have the scientific angler set ups.It comes with all the fixins.Rod,reel,backing,line,and the leader.I think it cost around 75-80 bucks.I bought the 5-6 weight for my first set-up a couple of years ago.I have since upgraded after I relized I like fly fishing.I gave my old one to a friend of mine and he still uses it today.

I almost hate to say it, but ebay might have some. I know, it can be real unreliable, but I got a 3/4 wt Cahill Crystal River (or something like that) for pretty cheap and its working fine for me. I don't know if this brand is just that cheap everywhere, or if it was a good deal, but I'd like to think I got a bargin.

For a while a few months ago, Walmart was clearing out their Scientific Angler stock. They had a bunch of them in the clearance bins for 10 bucks or less a piece.
They're probably all cleaned out by now.

Ebay is a great start. I'll look there. That's where I got my current rod...paid too much, but it's freakin amazing. Thanks fellas. KTK

Was at Sportsman Warehouse in Oly yesterday and they had a beautifull 3wt, 7 footer for $37 good price for a graphite. Not sure if it was a 4 piece or not.
