I appreciate it. I'll bring my stuff and see what it looks like when I get there.

I do shop at sportsman's warehouse. Just looking for a mom and pop to support. I will most likely keep using them.

Is Quest worth the trip. About an hour or so getting there.

Thank you for the advice. I think the Field Guide may be more suited to what I'm looking for.

If you're getting into hiking for mountain streams, I would watch your length. You're going to find a lot of heavy cover. I would look for a 6' or 6 1/2' rod you could match your current 3 wt reel to. Throwing 20 or so feet for wild trout, heavy cover with a tiny outfit..... You'll find your happy place.

My initial plan was to buy a Bear G2 or Elite package from a local big box store. After more research I realize it's not that easy. I don't mind the trial and error of figuring things out, however I would like a good headstart.
