A 7 or 8ft medium heavy action ugly stick fire tiger rod, diawa sealine 30, 65lb power pro spectra, 10 yards of 40lb flourocarbon would be a good starter set up

I'd say don't waste your money on a "starter setup". You will upgrade. Either use what you have until you want to upgrade, or start off right with a decent setup that you will use a lot. Also, buy a rod leash and use it.
