Just getting back into it? Have academy gift certificates? H20 spinning reel and h20 rod. Cheap good stuff. Upgrade later if you want. If you break it, bring it back and exchange it. Wrap 150 yards of 30# braid on it and call it a day. Get yourself 1 large Plano box and fill it with jig heads, lead heads, spoons, spinner baits, some gulp swimming mullets (white and chartreuse) and beetle grubs.
Might pick up a popping cork or two and some vudu shrimp.

I got a couple $20 quantum optix spinning reels that still run like champs with salt use. I'd go for that for now, since you're gonna be buying a lot of tackle and other equipment too. Upgrade/buy more later if you desire. Rods I'd look at all stars, cast aways, shimano, whatever you can find of a decent brand in the $50ish dollar range. Medium action, 7'.
Same tackle DLauw said, throw in gulp shrimp, khale hooks for live bait (3/0 is probably good) and I like clip on rattle corks, easy to adjust the depth or remove. I like matrix shad too.
