trilene 100% flurocarbon 10lbs with a swivel and 12 inch leader for specks and reds. last year my biggest speck was 5 lbs and biggest red was 9 lbs on the exact same rod , reel and bait. just don't try to muscle them and you should be ok. I don't have to re tie unless i get real frayed, which doesn't happen much. I also use uni knots all the way around and don't have to worry about breaking off.
