Congrats on taking the plunge
Rod: Temple Fork Series 1, 9 wt. Cost $100. A great all around casting rod.
Reel choices, least expensive first:
If freshwater rinse is available after each outing: Pflueger Medalist $35, Okuma Integrity large arbor $80.
If fresh rinse is not available: Old Florida $175 ish
Line -: by order of importance for beginner fishing from a boat:
Clear intermediate to use in the shallow areas and useable when fishing poppers and sliders. This will probably be 75% of your fishing to begin.
Extra fast sinking: For most everything else. This should eventually become your 75% use line.
Floating: very shallow water, changing presentation, poppers, sliders, worm flies.
