any decent Tackle store will be able to set you up with a med or med heavy rod such as a shimano convergance and a decent level wind reel such as a abu 6500 c3 or 4  or a shimano caorsiar for around the $200 range... I have used this combo for years and they are a great all around rod and reel

I think Fred's in Yarrow (or is it Chilliwack) has a $200 deal incl. a shimano convergence 10.5 everything rod (really good valu) and an abu 6500. Bug him to throw some line on :)

Good luck.
