Advice above is great.
I'll share tip for leaders.
I use about 15 feet of 40 lb from the planer - then a ball bearing swivel.
From that - I'll use 30lb - sometimes 20 lb fluro if water is really clear.
Reason is - 40 is easier to handle and less likely to coil up / tangle.
It holds up to abuse and simple to put on new short 10 foot piece of lighter stuff.
