Default Final Gear Setup question

So here I am for one final setup help question. Just want to see what you fellas would recommend would be my best 5 setups and what line I should put on each for optimal use going for bass and pickerel. So here are my 5 reels and rods:
Shimano Chronoarch 201e7
shimano curado 201e7
abu garcia revo stx
abu garcia revo toro winch 61
pflueger preseident on a tourney trail

Abu garcia veritas 6'6 MH F
Abu garcia veritas winch 7' med Fast
Abu garcia vendetta 6'6 MH fast
Quantum Tour HSX54 6'6 Med Fast

So any input would be great and sorry for like my third post like this but being a novice I really value all your help and wanna set myself up for my first decent season. Thanks

If you can wait a week or two and have $325 dollars to burn, I'll sell you an Abu Revo Beast and a Loomis IMX that were used for 6 hours and are in mint condition. It's a $650 combo.

No thanks I am pretty set. If you would like to do a partial trade plus cash I would consider it. Just looking for advice on what I have right now.

Have you used a bait caster before? They can be tricky at first.
I got used to using one, but still get some nasty bird's nests-especially if your cast gets interrupted.

I have only used a curado before and did pretty well. I will jist make sure I have four brakes on to start and take it somewhat slow. I dont really plan on casting too much for distance so I won't be overdoing it. I am just worrying about getting the right line on. I know there are plenty of videos but I would also rather have someone teach me hands on lol.
