I used to have a St Croix Premier surf. It was alrite, I like my avid better. Its 10ft rated 1/2-4oz. Good pencil rod also. For an all around rod you can't beat a GSB 1201M like tattoobob said. For a reel look at the Diawa Emblem($150) and Diawa Saltiga Surf ($400) if you don't want to spend $700+. Also the Shimano Spheros is a nice reel for under $150.
