Would the 7'6 Medium Light fast St. Croix Tidemaster Inshore Spinning Rod be a good match with the Penn Slammer 360 10lb/240 yds reel?
After research they both seem to be light but strong, however due to lack of experience I am not sure if there are changes I could make to make this rod/reel combination better or make an entirety new set.
For my fishing I plan on fishing for trout which are regularly stocked in a medium/small river in my back yard and also doing some inshore fishing at my boat marina and around that bay area for stripers or medium sized pollack/herring/mackerel.
Thanks for any answers, my budget isn't defined but I don't plan on making my living from fishing so I don't need the 500 dollar equipment. Definitely wouldn't mind a 200 rod or reel if I knew for certain it would be great.
Also, if there is a certain line or any lures that would work best for my location I would love to know!!
