I think I'd like to give it a try. I've got an old rod with what looks like a pretty crappy plastic reel that I picked up at garage sale a few years back, but never really gave it a shot.
What sort of good starter kits are there out there? Or is it better just to piece something together? In terms of flies, are there any good starter kits for those either?
Finally, any sites/forums I should check out for good info?

I would piece it together, you will get better quality for your buck, may pay a bit more but it will last longer so cheaper in the long run. Lots of blogs and info on the best rods and reels, in my opinion there are a few companies that you just can't go wrong even with their entry level stuff, usually great quality and warranties.
