All new rods this year

Well, after fishing with old cheap rods that leave much to be desired I am planning on upgrading my arsenal this year. What would you go with? Here are my reels:

Abu Garcia 6500 baitcaster
Abu Garcia 6-5000BG Centerdrag
Penn 6500SS
2 Penn 5500SS
Penn 49 Super mariner

I fish bearses rip off monomoy mostly unless it gets crowded but most of the time I'm out there with sluggos or sand eels. I wanted to have a varity from light tackle to heavy duty. The Penn 49 is what I use for trolling bucktails, umbrella rig, tub n worm... its loaded with wire and the rod I have now is a 40-80lb class that is way way to heavy duty. As for the other reels I was thinking about going st croix all the way across the line. Any other stuff I should be aware of? I'd like to have 12lb test all the way to 25lb on other rods. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. And this is a great site!
