Try a fenwick HMG, IMO it is better then the *** rod and also comes with a lifetime warranty.

I know a lot of people think the yamamoto senko is the best, but I think the Netbait Salt Lick gives is as good if not better.

Learning to fish
Biggest thing I can stress is not to go out and buy a boatload of lures, get one or two of several types and make sure to get a jig and texas rig equipment. Then find some ponds and learn to fish those techniques, then if you get pretty good with those move on to others. For soft plastic colors don't go crazy just get a dark like black/blue or junebug and a natural like grn pumpkin/ watermelon.
