I can't comment on the Kistler's myself having never used one. I bought a Loomis DS rod, it's a bit out of your price range though, but I'm happy very happy with that rod. Maybe look at the Shimano DS rods. TW has them for $140.

Also, I agree, the Symetre is a good reel, you may also want to look at the Shimano Stradic 2500 or the 4000, it's a bit on the high end of your price range but a very nice reel for about $40 more. TW is the place to get it, can't beat the free shipping there.
