Best Mono
Never have tried the Sunline Super Natural but have heard lots of good things about it. I really like Suffix Elite and have been trying the new Spider Wire Ultracast Ultramono and have been impressed with it so far the couple outings I have had with it so far.

Straight Braided Line???
I do not use a leader, but if I am fishing clearer water I will just switch to a different type of line.

Lews Tournament Pro Vs Shimano Cronarch 200E
I would go with the Lews. I have fished both and the Lews is just a lot smoother all around.

Okuma Helios Reel And Rod
So I received my Okuma Helios reel and rod today. First impression of the reel very impressed and the rod looks very impressive as well. So I spooled up the reel with some 10lbs line(trying the new Spider Wire Ultra cast, Ultra mono) and am ready to hit the water with it tomorrow. Tied on a 5/16oz North Star swim jig.

Swim Jigs
You can use any type of jig, just swim jigs tend to have a different style head and a smaller skirt and lighter weed guard. Also for me I use swim jigs in 1/4 and 5/16oz sizes primarily.

Which Swim Jig Trailer?
I prefer to use 4 or 5 inch single tail grubs and will also use double tail grubs. Have also used a Swim Senko tail as well.

Iphone Question
If you want a phone that just flat out works perfectly and you don't have to worry about anything the the iPhone is for you. If you like to customize and change things then the iPhone is still for you, just jailbreak it, Very easy to do these days. Now if you really like tinkering under the hood and really getting down and altering the system the a Android phone is the way to go. Sam, sounds like to ma an iPhone 4S will just be perfect for you and you will love it, everything just flat out works perfectly every time all the time.

You should greatly enjoy that combo. I have used both items and they are great products, just never together.

Help With Baitcaster Setup
The Revo SX is not probably going to be the best choice for a beginner. The Revo STX or Premier would be if you like the looks of the Revos. But their are plenty of other reels in that price range as well. For a rod you will probably want a 6' 6" to 7' M/F to MH/F depending on the brand you like, For line if you want to use braid I would go with 30 to 40 lbs braid and their are a lot of great braided line companies out their, Power Pro, Suffix, Daiwa etc...

Action For Spinnerbait Rod
I like a MH\XF rod for spinner baits.

St. Croix Avid Vs Premier
Yes their is, The blank and the components used in the construction of the rod. Both rods are excellently made rods in the USA plus also with the Avid you do get a life time warranty instead of a 5 year warranty with the Premiere. But both rods are available for St Croix's trade up program.

Homemade Rod Rack Suggestions
Its cheaper to just by one from Wal-Mart or when BPS or someone has them on sale. But they can be made out of PVC, does take some thoughtful planning. Home Depot and Lowes have nice selections of PVC that is already cut to some different lengths and end caps etc... Just have to go look and see and figure out how much space you have and how many rods and reels you want to store etc...

Revo Premier Or Patriarch
I would take the Premier over the Patriarch any day. The reel is super light and smooth and has an incredible drag system as well. Even though both reels come from the same factory the Revo is made with higher quality components, in my opinion.
