I use three basic setups but I'm one of the most basic in the use of line as many use different types (like braids) and pound test for many different applications...

Berkely Big Game Green:

12# - schoolies and bass up to 20#s, albies, throwing REALLY light stuff
20# - 80% of my fishing, plugs, eels, sandy beaches and most rocky shores
35# - REALLY rocky areas with very big fish - typically fall

with the 12# I often use a 20# leader and with the 20-35#, I use the 40-50# big game leader material.

I'm happy with mono and re-line my reel frequently whereas many others put braid on which lasts a lot longer but is far more costly....
