You can only use one fishing line type all your life...
Big game 8lb mono...its good enough for me never a issue ...8 will fit a penn 713z or 3000 size spinning reel and a 4600 size abu ...the reels i use most 90% of the time ...i may move up to 12 if it gets rocky or woody

Spinning or casting
Only disadvantage to a spinning reel is line twist ...figure that part out which is easy its a tool like a baitcaster ..think of a spinning reel as a 16 oz hammer compared to a 20 oz framing hammer they both work ...just slightly different
