need some opinions

[weezymagic]

hello all,
long time no read.
im finally more stable life wise and its that time of year (when isn't).
im getting back into fishing. and after the tax return, i have a little extra cash and a will to get this damn bait monkey off of my back.

im looking to get three new setups that will cover most of my bases. i know i know, but im looking for opinions.

my first setup will be a MH 7'0" (approx.) rod (unknown at this time) paired with a revo stx (6.2:1 if im not mistaken) this will mostly be used for spinnerbaits, buzzbaits and random others.

my second setup will be the same for the most part but used for crankbaits. medium to shallow divers atm. also a baitcaster (probably a revo stx) and an undetermined MH 7'0" (approx.) rod.

my third and final setup is unknown. i would like possibly a jig setup. i havent used them as much as the spinners or cranks but would like to develop my skills with flippin jigs. any help here is appreciated. i was thinkin a baitcaster of some kind with a 6'6" (approx.) rod

so the few things that i would like opinions on are what rods are good ($100-$150) for my first two setups and what type of combo would you use for the third combo.

i know all about line thanks to google and kevins line guide (Thanks again, you dont know how many people i show that to)

thanks again guys, as always
