Ok, they're running specials..75 for a 4 hour class, or $220 for the class and gear which is:
(includes your very own New Redington Topo 4-piece fly rod with rod/reel case, Redington Crosswater fly reel, spooled with Redington Mainstream line, backing and leader, a 5x tippet spool, lanyard with nipper and a fly box with 5 popular trout flies (includes rental equipment for the class).
So you get the class and basic gear. Any idea how much that would be to buy new and if it's decent equipment?

I recomend starting in a pond with no trees. I learned by the saying "act like you are painting a ceiling." All the movement should come from the shoulder movement not the wrist. Also, moving the bait faster when casting doesnt make the cast further. The fluent movements do.

Looks like Redington sells that package for 219.
Won't talk you out of it for a first package (esp. with the classes and price), but if you decide to spend some more on gear, the used market is great.
