Hunan- Conventionals are great in some ways but for what you want a spinner would be fine. Penn 706 with grease (not too expensive) and a basic 10-11ft rod would be fine. As for braid, youll cut you finger bad if you use a really thin diameter with a loose drag. The drag slips and the line cuts into your finger. If you keep a tight enough drag so the line doesnt slip in mid cast youll be fine. When youre in the surf, with waves dunking your reel and a strong wind in your face casting an eel, its nice to have a spinning reel.
