Don’t want to break the bank but I’m willing to pay for decent equipment.

Go to PensacolaFishingForum.com and search around. They are more familiar with the area you are looking to fish and the equipment you want to fish with.

You are on the right track with a long pole (7'6" - 8') and spinning reel. How big of a reel and how heavy tackle you are looking to throw probably needs to be figured out.
