Buy a pack or so of the items listed below it would probably only cost about 30-40 bucks but they are better quality and you will loose far less of them.
I would use cross-lock snaps NOT the ones in the kit.
Mustad or Gamakatsu hooks #2 or 4 for walleye. #8-12 for trout/perch.
slow poke jigs 1/8 and 1/4 oz.
Mustad ball bearing swivels #10-12
Assorted pack of split shot weights
Assorted pack of bell sinkers
If you are going to fish the river pick up some 3-way swivels.
Drop by The Fishin' Hole the guys there will give you a hand.

Pretty solid response here.
I'd add a couple len Thompson spoons #2 5 diamonds and Mepps Syclops in a couple different sizes and colors. Pick them up as you go for different species.
I've caught everything from trout, perch, walleye, whitefish, to a 24Lb pike on a white and red Syclops.
Jigs and spoons will cover you for just about everything out there.
