I can help with the flipping rod set up. I fish out of a boat and in a kickboat and this is very hard on rods and reels. I am very careless with my equipment and show no mercy when on the water with a flip'n rod in hand. I fish with some of the guys here on calfishing and they can back that up.

I use this reel

Model # on the rod is GS-C-761H-T-1
Here are the specs

I use 25lb big game for line.

This is right in your price range and a sweet set up.
