I like my boat set-ups to be able to multi-task. I'd rather have 4 set-ups on board that are not 100% perfect for any specific task, but fully capable of handling anything you throw at them. The only exception is my spinning outfit for tuna.
All I use for boat rods are Ugly Stick Tigers. It is really tough to beat them for the money, not to mention that it is really tough to beat them up in general. I'd probably recommend a couple of Penn Senator 113's on the heavier conventional Tigers. You can jig cod, live line mackerel/pogies and troll, all with the same set-ups. I do have a few shimano live-liners, but they took a back seat to the conventional set-ups.
Penn 5500's or 6500's make good plugging reels and if you aren't into conventional stuff for the fluke/sea bass, then you can use these as a lighter alternative. Personally, for flounder, I like an abu with braid on a light rod.
