Hey guys, this is my first post. I'm a pro fly fishing writer looking to get a decent spinning setup to fish the NJ shore for stripers this fall for a story. I have never spin fished in the ocean (!) and can use some help with a setup. Will be using plugs exclusively, from the surf and occasional jetty.

Any recommendations on rods/reels (including sizes) would be greatly appreciated. Looking to spend $350-400 on the setup.

Also, if there is any place to get some nice USA-made hand-made plugs?
