I'll echo the sentiment about clothes. I keep upgrading my winter outdoor wardrobe, but that actual fishing equipment is relatively cheap.

The BPS rods are about $40. If you have another spinning reel, you can just use that. Buy some good fluorocarbon line for leaders and some Fireline or Braid. You can pick up the bobbers, swivels and flies for a couple bucks apiece.
