I used to fish with a fly rod (not using flies, instead using worms and a split sinker) in Washington state catching rainbows. Those fresh caught small stream trout are some of the best eating. Good luck to ya.

TFO's are definitely a great rod to start out with, I like 9 or 9.5' rods.
I know they do this at the Pigeon Forge Orvis shop, but you can try going into any Orvis shop and ask for assistance in choosing a rod. They will reel a few up for you and let you test them out. Really any decent fly shop should do that for you too. LRO does it in Townsend. Good option to find out what type of flex you like in your rod. If you don't have any buddies who fly fish, you may want to see about taking a class or going with a guide to pick up a few pointers.
Nice, what area do you fish?
