Hello, welcome back to fishing! I'm going to answer your questions directly, paragraph by paragraph, and then if you have additional questions/concerns answer them as we go.

Rod: For you dad, I would get a medium heavy(MH) fast action 6'6" in whatever you want to afford. I'll tell you right now, any rod will go as far as you need it to. I fish 3-4 days a week, so I don't depend on cheaper equipment. But if you can only afford a $10 shakespear, don't sweat it. For the boy, let him pick something out that he thinks is awesome. Build his interest now, keep his interest later. My daughter's barbie pole has netted a ton of fish this season, and she's had a blast every step of the way because she made the choice.

Where to start: New York DNR - Check this place out for places to fish in your area. Just about every local pond/lake is going to have fish that you can catch. Don't be afraid to post to social media for spot suggestions.

Hooks: Sorry to say, but you and everyone else is going to get poked and stuck with hooks. It's part of the sport. What you can do is be prepared. Buy a light weight first-aid kit and practice patience. Being in a hurry is how I get stuck, EVERY TIME. Don't worry about filing the barbs. Human skin is extremely resilient and the chance of the hooks going all the way through are very rare. It's only happened once in my entire life and I had my brother pull the hook out with pliers. Along the same lines, this is why I do/did the majority of my 4 kids' casting until they were comfortable with the consequences.

Gear:

  • Line - Reaction Tackle If you need braid, I would get Reaction. But I would start with like a 4lb mono, middle of the road price, to get started. Until you're comfortable with casting and reeling.

  • Tackle Box - It's a nice box, but I would wait until you know what your needs are going to be. At this point you need a rod, line, hook, bobber, and maybe some weight. A $15 Plano from Bass Pro would give you some extra cash for other pieces of your journey.

  • Hooks - The circle hooks that you linked would be great for catfishing, but a small light weightt bait-holder hook may be a better option. I understand where you're coming from, wanting a variety, but it may not be worth it until you know what you're targeting.

  • Tools - I'd like to add that you will want to pick up some nail clippers or scissors to leave in your bag. Everything else you listed is a good start. Again, your needs may differ so don't get too crazy with buying everything until you know exactly what you're going to want to do.

    After reading all of that, the ideal setup for you would look something like this: 6'6" MH Rod with any spinning reel. 75-100YDS of 4LB Monofiliment Line. 24"-36" from the end of the line, you'll have a medium size bobber. 12"-18" from the end of the line, you'll have a 1/8oz split shot sinker. On the end of the line, you'll want a 1/0 bait-holder hook tied on using a palomar knot. On the hook, you'll want about 1/4-1/3 of a night crawler worm, or wax worm. Everything else is just a bonus.

    Fishing at the very core, is about being in the outdoors and interacting with nature. Having all this stuff is fun to research, fun to shop, and fun to think about... but at the end of the day if you're not enjoying your time outside, then it's not worth it.
