Need advice on fishing gear.

Since I blew my wad on the new Kayak and accessories, I have limited funds for fishing gear. I picked up both of these reels for $10.

Diawa Sealine Series 50H I think I am going to buy one of the Cheapo Sabre rods for $40 at Big 5 for this reel. I am thinking Kelp beds and bay? Your thoughts are appreciated.



I also picked up this Quantum reel. Looks like it may be too small even for the bay. I have another one similar to this called the Quantum Iron.


I was at Big 5 and saw a a couple of reels that were around the $50-70 mark. I thought I could get one more reel and rod for $100 total. I was looking at a Shimano and a Roddy. Both felt cheap, but I did find some favorable reviews. They also had 2 Shimano Tyrnos 8 on clearance for $159. But that would destroy my budget. So I could get 2 Sabre rods and one cheapo reel and have two complete setups if I use the Diawa 50h pictured above. I want to spend the money on my wife and kids this Christmas and limit the guilty pleasure of buying for me.
