 Daiwa Tournament 8 Accudepth Hyper PE is a good mid range braid I use on my 5000, then YGK on my 10000. Love both, the 5000 is used for land based spinning as much as off a boat. Both very low diameter.

have accudepth on my stella aswell.

but just don't believe the diameter. it's thicker than advertised. (but very smooth, casts well .....which I assume you will be doing with an XG...would recommend it)

That depends - what are you using it for?

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

I would personally use PE5 or PE6 Saltiga Boat Braid.

Or similar strength Varivas if your not concerned about price. I do love the Saltiga stuff, but ended up stripping everything off my reel on the last trip and re-spooling with some Varivas off one of my casters on my last long range trip because I had about 4 unexplained line breakages. No idea what caused it. The line had only been on the reel for around 2 months and had only done one 5 day trip during that time. I really hope it was an isolated incident because I have quite a lot of the stuff!
