Watch out for cheap "lightweight rods, in my previous 7 years of experience working for Kiene's I have rarely found a cheap ultra-light rod that was it's true line weight, you had to over-line almost every cheap rod. Make sure that you cast the rod before buying it. Check out some of the fiberglass 3wts, there were a few out there that were fun. I think that Diamondback used to make an affordable ($250-$300) true-lined fiberglass series. Temple Fork had a 2pc 7'6" 3wt if I remember correctly, but I've been out of the FF industry for a while now.
I love my slow action 7' 3wt for my small stream fishing!
