3wt Reel/Line Recommendations?

[Aenigma]

I'm just about done building my new rod, but I don't have a reel yet. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good 3wt that isn't too pricey? I don't need anything fancy, but I also want it to last quite a while...I'm just not very up to date on fishing gear at all.

The redington drift is a nice light machined click reel at $99. I sell a lot of them and people seem very happy with them.

I have one of the Red Truck click reels on my 3wt, and have been very happy with it. It has to be the best reel for the money I have seen:

Currently, they are $59. If you want a little better reel, they have their Diesel model:

These are $199. Still a click drag, which I think is the most fun and best way to go on a 3wt rod.

For a line, I am running the Scientific Anglers Trout DT Taper Line. It is $70. It is a great small stream line in my opinion and easy to manipulate on small cast. I landed a 16" Rainbow with this setup on a 7 ft Scott fiberglass 3wt rod and the click drag was just fine.

I've had great luck with this reel which only costs $50 ( i bought the 5/6 for a 9 ft 5 wt sage where i'm fishing wf 5wt sa shark skin line which i also love but it costs $100)

It is cheap and seemingly well made. it will get its real trial on my trip to the missouri this fall, but so far so good. you would probably want the 2/3 i'm guessing.

I decided to go with the Redington, and I should be able to try it out wednesday or thursday evening, if all goes well. Thanks for the help!

I picked up Redington Classic Trout 3wt rod with the 2/3 drift reel last weekend. Going to take it on an over night backback trip this weekend and hunt brookies.

So Aenigma, how'd you like your set-up?
