If you want some rods, you can get some cheap ones at your shopping centres. I got both mine in a bundle, like a rod, reel as well as a line, but you want to be more serious get some bait caster reels, though they cost quite a bit, but you want some casual beach fishing, just go to some shops and get a bundle for around 50-100 dollars, and you have everything you need.

hey mate

my fav set ups are baitcaster set ups for sure because i prefer baitcasters but my first beach set up (egg beater setup) which i still use was just a cheap Okuma Vecta (or something like that) from a tackle store it was like 60 or 70 bucks lol and is really nothing good at all, and you can buy a 12 foot beach rod for about 40 - 60 bucks from any good Tackle store, combine those with some 25Lb mono and ull be sweet

or as suggested above you can also go for a combo, it all depends on what you want to spend and how much you want to use it.

Cheers
