Newcomer looking for advice

[back2fishin]

Hey all,

I am going to take a crack at spin fishing for bass and other species this year.  I was fly fishing for a few years prior to the birth of my son (now 3 1/2) and I want to get back into the water.  I grew up spin fishing lakes/ponds/bays and oceans in NJ and have the itch to get back into the action.  Since I live in Lowry I am close to Quincy/Aurora and Cherry Creek.  I consider it a fresh start as I have not really focused on anything except trout in the rivers out here with my fly gear.   
Any advice on getting a fairly basic setup for spin fishing?  Rod, reel and tackle?  I would love your advice.  Good news is that I have an Old Towne Vapor wide base kayak that I would love to get out on the lakes and ponds with.

Thanks,
Matt

do you want spin casts rods or what?

Probably going to start with some kind spinning combo at this point................move on to a casting combo after that.  An all around good set-up that is versatile.

Well ok for the spinning combo a medium with fast action split. Grip technology for mor sensitivity. For the reel I would consider the abus one of reels 2500 series with 10 pound power pro braid with a 6 to 8 pound flourocarbon leader
