What is your budget? Do you plan on doing more Saltwater fishing than Freshwater? Also depends on the rod action you ordered and recommended corresponding line.
I am looking at it the spinning inshore based a a recommendation as we are novice level. I would like to stay around $100 per reel. We mostly fish small lakes at my son's Boy Scouts events.
I don't know much about actions and lines though 🙁
Well, if you are going to be inshore fishing sometimes you will most likely need/want a semi saltwater reel. Personally I use PENN reels but Daiwa and Shimano are good too. Reels like the Daiwa Fuego, Penn Fierce, Shimano Sedona, may be good options for you. Personally for bass fishing I use Lew's reels but that is just a personal preference because of price and quality ratio.
About the line and action, you can go on Mustad and click on the rod you purchased on their website, and there will be a whole chart showing the specifications. From that you can act accordingly selecting a line and reel size. If you have a local Bass Pro or something you should go and look at the lures before buying them since size is mostly a personal preference. I paired a 2500 Penn Battle 3 with 15 pound braid on a 7ft Medium Heavy rod which works fine for inshore fishing.
Thank you very much for the tips!

Yes, check out the Dozer Inshore spinning rods.
oh well ordered a 7' MH for s 5500 penn spinfisher that needs a new rod
The Dozer rods are great. Xfast, quality, comfortable. Recommended. The FX is more of a boat rod, or maybe just dunking bait, but I wouldn't want to cast it all day. Hope that helps.
It's annoying that I had to actually reach out to them before I got any status updates.
As for the rod itself, I haven't tested it, but it does look and feel like a quality rod. The packaging was very good. They wrapped it in bubble wrap, taped it so it would stay put, and also wrapped a 4" piece of foam around the tip and taped it. The tube is very durable cardboard.
