A 12ft rod will get the bait out farther for you. That's why it is so long. Spinning reels rule the day for a surf caster as again you can get further out quicker and easier for a beginner.
Penn is no longer made in America, and the newer one I own, I'm not happy with. Go with a Cabalas or Bass Pro combo if you can. Good warranty on these.
I use braided line for my saltwater rigs and it will get the line out further. 20lb works well for me.
