Swivels & Fluro

About the only thing I haven't really got covered for the show, terminal tacklewise, are swivels and fluro. I'm going to order some for the show anyway and I'm curious what people like to use for size. I know size matters so that's why I'm asking.

Now I'm guessing there should be two separate groups, shore=heavier and boat=lighter, but then again I'm a little radical as far as what most would consider "boat gear". For example I use 30# spiderwire (normal), to a #10/30lb test crane swivel (lighter than most), followed by either 20 or 30 lb Seagar Fluorocarbon and the Owner/Kalin Hook/Jig I'm using. I had hoped to order some Spro Power Swivels, since there 70lb test is smaller than anyones 30lb test #10 swivel, but they are also very very expensive.

So I'm thinking 20 & 30 on the Fluro and #10/30lb and #7/75lb test Sampo Crane swivels, but I'd like to know what people think. Now I'm only moving in a direction to stock the terminal gear that makes sense and matches up with my plastics.
