>>953175go to a local tackle shop.
tell them the story you just shared with us.
tell them how much you want to spend.
tell them what you intend to fish.
buy your setup from them.
buying from your local brick and mortar shops keeps them alive and will get you a bounty of info pertaining to ongoing bites in your locale.
afterwards you can always stop by and ask a few questions to get yourself on the bite. lots of fishing where you are.
good luck brother.
git you some.
