Jig fishing: prefer braid or fluoro? Advantages of each?
You definitely need Fluorocarbon and 15lb test and higher, I found it 20lb test is sweet spot. Good luck.

Night Fishing (headlamps? casting gear?)
It depends on moon phase , if it is pitch black you must have lights on, You can go with red lights. Also so many nights if you turn the lights on, The mosquitos will eat you up, So a net also needed in some occasion. For night time fishing for bass I always have enough rods rigid up with what I had plan in my home, I also trying to be near my truck to do rigging there. If you have boat, I wouldn't see any problem to have some sort of light in the boat. Another thing I learned is in night minnows coming to light and bring bass to you, Also I use minnows as bait Starting next week I am going to camp every weekend for bass and trout.

High Cholesterol
My Ex of 110lb had Cholesterol and I 200lb at the time was normal. One of her No No was Eggs since she didnt eat fried food at all(she was doing steam veggie and fish or chicken only), I in other hand eat everything. So I think not eating eggs can help you a lot. Wish you the best and healthy.

What is your all time sleeper baitcaster?
Most of you might know I am Shimano DC kind, But I wanted something for my son to air with his 13Rod and he likes the color so I got inception 5Z and it was $100 off. Since my son not fishing as much as I do, I used it for casting for surf fishing, I am surprised how solid this reel is and I haven't get any backlash with it as well, Fully sealed and safe for saltwater. here is the pictures. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/catpage-13FSHREELS.html?from=basres

G Loomis 901s v 902s
I have 903c and 905c Conquest and I use 905 for jigs and 903 for everything when I need the longer rod for distance. I would not recommend 901s for bass fishing, I would use that for trout fishing either jigging or drop shotting. I really have no idea about 902.

Drop Shotting From The Shore
I am drop shotting from shore for trout. My set up is 7'6" ML spinning with 1000 size Sahara with 4lb test fluorocarbon with 1/8oz weight. It will go far. so you think of weight you doing and adjust your line test. But try to keep the rod longer to get more distance. And the hook number 2 or number 4 Daiiechii mosquito will do the great job.

Ultra finesse BFS setup: Yesterday's ultimate test
I was thinking the same when I saw the pictures of FL anglers. Thats why I do once a week saltwater(deep sea) to have some more actions. some days I cast for 4 hours from the bank and have only one bass. some day if lucky ill have 6 or 7 bass all day when I am on float tube or boat. It is really challenging with lake pressure and weather in SoCal.
