You'll need a much larger fly rod for bass/steelhead than bluegill, and it would also be better to have a rod in between the two for smallmouth. For bass/steelhead, a 7wt rod should suffice but up to a 9 and down to a 6wt will work depending on size of fish. Best to stay around 7 or 8. Bluegill you should go around a 3wt rod. For smallmouth, a 5 or 6wt rod is best. Some guys on here can help ya with brands/reels, I can't really help with much..
