Suggestions on Shimano Gear? (self.fishing)

I am getting a killer discount on three Shimano rods and three reels. I will be targeting pelagic fishing for food while under sail, and some surf fishing. I'm targeting fish like salmon, tuna, mackerel, trevally/jack, and whatever good-eating fish are in the open ocean and surf. So... three of those rods and reels to rule them all. We will have two downriggers on our sailboat, if that's a factor for selection. Thank you in advance for any insights and guidance you can provide!

Any specific models, or just 3 rods of whatever you choose?

As far as I can tell, the discount applies to any of Shimano reels and rods. I've been poring over the Shimano site and the marketing copy doesn't convey anything meaningful other than saltwater or freshwater.
