Thanks everyone for the recommendations. I just got back from bass pro shops. I ended up buying a 6' bass pro shops panfish elite, it is an ultralight. I wanted the 6'8" light but all they had it in was ultralight and it felt a little to flimsy at that length. I also got a pflueger president, it seems like a pretty solid set up.

That should be a real enjoyable combo. Best luck with it and it is a real nice upgrade from your old setup. The President is a very nice reel for the money. Another one but a higher price is the Daiwa Legalis. Great drag and smooth.
