I have an old Spheros 8000FB in good condition with some 50 lb PowerPro on it that I will sell to you as a combo for $275.00 if youre interested. This would be a great setup, and cover all your needs in the surf.

you could do alot worse that this for starters, assuming you can transport and store a 1 piece rod.
for rod length, i'd recommend 9' or 10'. 11' is kind of a specialty length IMO, almost all your needs will be better suited with a 9 or 10, especially in the beginning. 11 will wear you out and be overkill in 95% of situations (i don't own one and never feel the need for one). If I could only have one rod it would be a 10' lami 1201m. If you can find a used one of those in your price range, jump on it.
