help picking out a rod and reel

[maxey127]

eh, i really dont know what to do yet. i was just gatherin some info for when i do decide to upgrade. right now ive got a 30$ setup from walmart. 5 and a half feet, super light and flexible... the only problem in that it holds 100 yards of 4lb test, lol. im gettin by with 6lb spiderwire so its all good. i guess i dont really NEED a quality rod. do yall think the rod or the reel is more important, and also could yall help me pickin out a good reel if i were to get one. what qualities am i lookin for?
