Main line on rigger rods is 20# Berkley Big Game. I double uni 30' or so of Berkley 100% Fluoro for my riggers. My leaders on leadcore and copper are 25' same material.
I'm not convinced fluoro needed but just in case I can get a couple of extra bites each trip I use it. It is not as abrasion resistant as mono but school is still out re visibility.
