Need help with my gear

I have decided to start fishing again, been a long time since I fished.
I looked at what gear I have left and am not sure of my rod and reel
really compliment each other,

Rods:
1) Diawa Eliminator medium light 6'
2) Shakespeare Ugly Stick medium(i think) handles 6-15 lb test SPL1100
7' lite

Reels:
1) Abu Garcia Cardinal 764GIi ( 8lb test)
2) Abu Garcia 874 (closed face)
3) Shakespeare SIT 2701DB
4) Shimano Symetre Aero SY1000F ( 4 or 6 lb test)

Do any of my rods match well with any of my reels? Does the
monofilament go bad? I assume reel 4 is an ultra lite. My thinking is
to get a bait caster (quantum acs II) with a 6' med rod, find a rod
for the ulta lite. Please let me know what you think I am open to all
suggestions. Thanks in advance!
