Could someone recommed to me a combo for the canal that won't break the bank? This year will actually be me first trip. I'm kind of a weekend warrior, and mainly stick around CT and RI. I have a couple 706's and 704's a Stradic 8k and some other smaller reels. I usually use my GSB 1201m around RI but I feel that I may be under gunned with that rod at the canal. I'd like to get some distance, throw large baits, and be able to turn a potentially large fish in that type of current all with spinning gear since I'm still kinda getting used to conventional.

Thanks, Matt
