Is anything true or really make any differences? What Fly rod and line i.e. balanced system is good for small trout on small rivers?

Fly Fishing: Fly fishing rods are thin, long, flexible rods sometimes made of bamboo, but mostly from man-made materials. As their name indicates, fly rods are designed to cast a fly (or flea as our mentor used to say). Instead of a weighted fishing lure, a fly rod uses the weight of the fly line for casting, and lightweight rods can cast the very smallest fly (or flea). Fly rods tend to have a single, large diameter line guide, with a number of smaller looped guides placed along the fishing rod to help control the movement of the thick fly line. A complete system from Cortland or Scientific Anglers in a 4weight or 5weight is what your looking for. Rod, reel, line and backing are all included. All the rods in those systems are designed to be of a medium action that allow for all types of casting styles and abilities. The only thing I would look for is that the rod is 8′. Any shorter and the ability to load the rod while casting becomes difficult.
