I've gotten to the point all I use is a 6' two piece ultra light ugly stick that is fairly stiff for almost all my fishing. I use a small, good quality light spinning reel (5 or 6 ball bearing) with an instant anti reverse & spool it with 10 lb. Spider Wire or Fireline braided line.
I've handled up to 15 lb. channel cats with this outfit & can still fish for yellow perch just fine.
He can get set up like this for under $50.00 and go from there to whatever he likes better once he gets into it.. Terminal tackle is where fish of size are kept or lost. Pick the TubeDude's brain on that matter.
