Hey Aznavalanche welcome to BFT and the wonderful world of fishing! We are glad to have you. If you would like to get yourself a really good rod that will be good for everything you listed i would say get and Uglystick rod and real combo in med/heavy action. Your can get one under $50. I have one of their rods and i got everything from little sun fish to big 40" northern pike on it. I know you have a Dicks sporting goods around you somewhere. Just go there and tell them that you are looking for and uglystick spinning rod combo.
I used to live In Moon township for a while and when i lived there i would drive out to a place called Raccoon Creek State Park. Its a small lake the has a little of everything in it. They even stock trout in it to. I think that would be a good place for you to get away for a while.
Here is the link for the park [url "http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateParks/parks/raccooncreek.aspx"]http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateParks/parks/raccooncreek.aspx[/url]
Remember to keep us posted on what rod and real you get and if you have any luck catching anything.
