Are you surfcasting or deploying baits? Rods and reels would be different. What size sharks ? 1-4ft? 5-7ft? 7+?
Budget?
You can get set up for sharks under 5ft for about 200-300 if you don't mind used stuff.
Can't go wrong with Penn 6/0 conventional, or a 6000-8000 size spinning reels. Daiwa BG, Penn Battle are excellent entry level reels, I wouldn't trust stuff of less lineup to last long.
MH rod, 30lb rated for sure. 30-50lb mono
I like circle hooks, 7/0 to 12/0 range depending on target and bait sizes.

We're getting ready to do our fall King Mackerel Tournament at Harkers Island NC. We catch a lot of Black Tip and Spinners on 30 pound test trolling for Kings. Light drag and let em go. Live Menhaden on trebles. Don't think we have ever lost a Black Tip. Sometimes the Spinners sky and wrap the line up and pop it. RATZ, went back and saw he said "surf gear", disregard the above.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.
