Jason, MikeCC can set you up with a nice rod like Tica or tsunami
as for the reel I would look on ebay foe a 704, or a 710 depending
on the rod Mike can also tell you what's a good reel. try 6 to 9 inch
slug-gos also. sounds like you need to find some new spots that hold
bigger fish. try fishing and getting there at 5am and fish till the sun
comes up

Don't buy a Okuma reel, Penn make nice reels and are very easy to service

Mike makes some great custom rods too if Daddy needs a new one!

Don't forget that Mike also carries the Quarrow Tide Runner series surf rods - great rods for easy money.
