praying caddis

no cold never thought about it any suggestions?majority of my fishing will probably 20-40'. and as far as other combo's i thought about echo base or fenwick aetos and a orvis battenkill lll, but with the prices of fly equipment i didnt know how good they would be at the lower price

getting started in fly fishing and tying as another way to fish getting tired of slinging hugh hunks of stuff at bass&cats. plan on mostly trout and also some pan fish not a lot of trout in missouri but enough to keep me fishing. so i'm thinking a beulah guide series ll in either 4 or 5 wt, and a 3 tand tf50 reel for a starter set-up, what's your thoughts on it, and what should i be planning on for the next step up?
