the Orvis Encounter outfit is a good basic starter outfit up to 8wt which is fine for schoolies etc...might consider 9 or 10 wt if you are targeting albies or bigger bass/blues..it won't offer you the long term durability of the more expensive sw rods and reels ($250+ for just the Hydros reel) but it will get your toes wet without spending a ton to see if you like it...comes with floating line but I'm sure you could find someone to donate a used intermediate so you don't have to spend 80 bucks on a line....sinking lines are tough to cast if you are learning...fish taking gurglers from the surface on fly is as much fun as plugging with topwaters
