Baitcasting setup help

What up guys. I have a spinning setup that I’m looking to make a lightweight only, rubber finesse kind of setup w fluorocarbon. I have fished with a spinning rod my entire life growing up, I’m very comfortable with it.

I’m looking into getting my first baitcasting setup. I understand the benefits of mastering a baitcasting setup and I’m really exited to try it out.

I’m looking to spend under 200$ to start for either a combo, or a rod and reel separate. I understand combo’s usually are lacking on one side (either rod or reel). Any suggestions would be awesome, and thank you!!

That will be a decent set up

Also the Shimano SLX with a Shimano Exage would be nice.
I had an Exage and it was a surprisingly responsive rod for $100
