Damn bro. I just use 20lb powerpro. You don't need 65lb inshore. IMO.

Im still learning about trout fishing, but I know that you definately do not want to go all of the way to the hook with your braid. You need a mono or fluoro leader. Trout can see very well and you will not catch many with Braid.

Last year I went out with two other guys and me and one guy were murdering the trout. We were catching 5 to the other guys 1 (maybe). We were fishing on the bottom and he had braid all of the way to the hook. I had braid also, but I had an egg weight and had the braid tied to a swivel. I then had a 20lb fluoro leader from the swivel to the hook. We were all fishing the same rig with live cocahoes, but he had braid to the hook and wasn't catching crap.

In off colored water i don't think it makes a difference. But i have had my butt handed to me till i tied on a floro. leader.
