Shakespeare Fishing Rods

What type/size of a fishing rod/reel will i need to fish with on the Susquehanna River?
I want to know how big of a rod i will need, and how big of a line i will need to catch catfishfish,musky,carp,and smallmouth bass in the Susquehanna river. I’d like to keep it cheap, and i’d like to stick with Shakespeare Rods..
You can purchase a 7′ 2 piece Ugly Stick that will handle
8 to 20 pound test for about $30 and a Pflueger Trion
reel or a Pinnacle Extant reel (both are decent and cost
about $30). Spool up with 10 pound mono and you’re good to go. This is pretty much the “stock” outfit of the Susquehanna.
For Smallmouth Bass: Mepps Black Furys, Rebel Crayfish,
red and white flatfish, and Mr. Twisters in yellow, motoroil and black work great.
For Walleye: Marabou jigs in black, brown, yellow are big producers as are shiners or nightcrawlers fished on a floating jighead off the bottom near drop-off points and deep rocky bottom areas (you’ll also catch your share of Smallmouth
as well)
For Muskie: 8 to 10″ yellow tube style baits work best attached to a yellow marabou jig in the late fall through the winter. Look for eddys and fish them hard. Also: big broken back Rapalas in black/silver take fish (make sure you get them deep) Big Mepps Muskie spinners in yellow work also.
Channel cats can be had by bottom fishing with nightcrawlers and chicken livers.
