put the fly rod away, break out the light weight spinning rod and toss Rapalas. I loved the dirty looks I would get from Fly Fishermen around me as I caught fish after fish.

You also have alot of "purisits" on the Provo meaning. morons that think they are better then you because they fly fish. haha

Which flyfishing setup of these three would you suggest I get?

I've always been a fan of Redington. Go with aluminum.

Do you have one? At Cabellas they said they sell 1 Echo for every 50 Reddingtons

No I don't, but I've used one and almost bought one a while back.

Was told a 9ft 5wt would be a great all around setup.

That's true. The brown trout pattern rapalas have always been good for me there

Depends on what kind of fishing you like to do. If you like nymphing, especially
