First thing, what is your budget?
2nd thing, what species will you be targetting?

I just picked up a 7 ft. Shakespear Ugly Stick and a Pflueger President 40 that ran me about $120 total.
I'll use it for the same stuff you are looking to catch and throw in bass, catfish etc. for some freshwater action.
ETA: My two trips with it out to the Miss. River found me landing a 42 inch Blue Cat that went 31 lbs. and the next trip a 31 inch Blue Cat that went 25 lbs. plus a few in the 5-10 lb. range.
Can't wait until I can get to my favorite spot once the river goes down and shoot for some flatheads.

Shimano Sahara, penn fierce III, penn pursuit III
falcon HD, any academy h2o that fits your needs, low end 13 fishing spinning rod.

The Daiwa BG is the nicest $100 reel I’ve ever used. You can get it in a combo package for under $150.
I wouldn’t mess with a baitcaster in that price range.

Funny you ask. I want to do inshore fishing for the same species but I actually want to go with a fly setup. Size and brand for Rod, reel, line, etc.
Any suggestions?

It’s hard to beat the Shimano SLX or the Lew’s LFS baitcasters at the their price point of $99. If you increase your budget to around $175, you could pair either with a decent St Croix rod and have a nice combo.
