a sedona 500 with a Ultra light ST Croix rod would be good for trout fishing and light bass fishing. You can put 2 or 4 pound test.
for lures you can get some lip ripperz (all species), roboworm reapers and straight tails in 3.5 and 4 inch sizes (for bass), small pin's minnows (trout and bass), panter martins (for trout), kastmasters (for trout), Senkos (For bass) and some bigger jerbaits, 3.5 - 4 inches in length, bigger pins minnows are good and so are rapalas.
i know im not an expert but those are what i wish i had when i first started fishing, and for the rod i am sure that is the way to go, you can catch some big fish with 4# test, i know people who have caught 10 pound cats with 3 pound test.

I would agree with everyones choices in lures etc above ,but try to find this stuff on ebay first,i've found some great gear on there for decent preices and in the case of reels etc i only buy new ones,not somebody's used reel.for a baitcasting outfit i would get a corsair 300 or 400 to fish the heavier stuff.that way your not investing too much to find out you or your buddy your setting up doesnt like to cast the baitcasters,matched w'a shimano convergence or similar rod.as for the gold lures for the sierras you can find the gold kastmasters at wallyworld,big 5 etc. my favorite sierras spoon is the thomas bouyant in gold with red ,orange dots etc..aand this year i expiramented with the tasmanian devil lure and it works great despite its funky looks. Berkley troutworms and a bubble were my go to baits when the bite gets tough at convict etc.. thanks , brian b Catch Alot,Photograph a few,Release them all...
