I'm with DM.
Depending on the season and time of year. During the winter when the bigger models are around, I switch up to 40# on top of a 65 braid. Other than that, 30# on top of a 65#. The difference is diameter between 65 and 50 is so minute, like a 2-3# difference in mono line to make visibiltiy a non-issue. I just feel that 65 cuts kelp a bit faster, and with the abundance of dogs around, the faster the better. My rockfishing rig I run 50, but that's because I'm farther from the kelp.
Go get 'em!
