So on my penn squall I have 65 lb braid and no topshot. When using the double dropper loop I was planning on using a barrel swivel to reduce line twisting. My question is should I connect the braid to the swivel and then my pretied dropper rig or should I connect some topshot with the braid and then use the topshot to connect onto the swivel? Was thinking about using 30lb fluoro but my LFS says 50lb mono is fine since the rockfish are so deep. Going on my buddies boat to Ventura but I’ll be using this setup on my kayak.
