    How much do you want to spend? I'd look at Cabela's if you don't want to spend a lot.

    +2 for the Cabelas Stowaway 6 comes in 9' 8wt I've cast the 8 wt and own the 4 and 5 wts. nice rod for the money and it's "crisp" and it's on sale right now for $96. almost can't beat that for a travel rod. and it comes with a decent bag and travel tube.
