what pound test is best for rock/ling fishing

Lately I've been running two different kits (light and heavy)

The light setup is a spinning rig with 15lb braid FJ knotted to 15 mono.

The heavier setup is a baitcasting rig with 40lb braid FJ knotted to 20 mono.

for the normal person up to #50 is ideal with 20-30 leader.

There are no normal people around here...

oh that's right..my bad. it's madness in here. lol

1,000,000 answers to that question!     30# Braid with 25# mono for mine

1,000,000 and one!

go-to rig: 30lb braid to a 25lb topshot of 10-12ft (all standard bottom fish)

heavy rig: 40lb braid, 40lb mono topshot   (big WSB, thresher, pelagics)

My go to setup is 50lb braid, 40lb mono leader. 

40# Braid and 40lbs Mono....Leader.

30# braid, 20-25# leaders for rock/ling/hali, lighter leaders for other stuff xcept sturgeon then a 60# mono leader, all based on whats strong enough but still easy to break off if need be.

steel leaders for shark, probably not needed unless I hook a sevengill (somewhat likely) or a thresher (very unlikely) (for me).

Braid is really prone to abrasion so keep an eye on it.

65lb braid with a 30-50lb floro leader. I like the floro! It holds up well and does not stretch as much as mono. My .02 cent worth
