How should I set up my reel for YT and others off LJ? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

nope. 50 or 65lb braid. amazon has original power pro in 1500 yrd spools, price will vary. I prefer 65 lb because I feel its easier to work with if a tangle should arise . 50 lb would be more appropriate on smaller sized reels such as your bait maker or if you are fishing plastics for calico. 65 lb is unlikely to bust on anything short of a 150 lb plus thresher. congrats on popping your cherry and posting up.

TJones, I'm sorry for my long and tiring response. I tend to be enthusiastic and I get so damn hyper that I jump out of my flip flops

It's an ADHD thing. I accept, LOL

This is the part of your response I like best:
