Calling all inland lake fly fishermen!

I think that right now I'm really thinking about wanting to get into a fly rod.

Where do I start?

I don't need the top of the line gear and if I had to set a budget for starting out I would hope to stay around $100 for a good time...I don't even know if that sounds reasonable or not.

Someone or everyone please school me on some fly rod fishing.

Cabelas has some great starter rod kits for $159. They are the prestige outfits. They come with pretty much everything you need to get started. I would recommend on getting a 9' 4 price 5/6 weight as that will work for about anything that you will get a hold of on a lake. It will also break down small enough for easy transport. I will warn.you though prepare for another addiction.
