I had the same issue going into this fishing season. I was looking at buying a nice newer baitcasting combo. I found the best one to be a Pflueger reel / All Star combo. I've casted it in the back yard a few times and the feel is great. I love it. It cost only 80 dollars as well at Gander Mtn. Also with the fishing line, I would start with mono as I believe it's one of the best all around lines, but in the future go towards flourocarbon.
