I don't like spectra and a short topshot on the iron for a couple of reasons. Winding spectra back on at high speeds a few hundred times is tough on the fingers. And a high speed spectra backlash on the reel takes tangles to a new level. I'm finding iron fish that are nowhere near the kelp so straight mono works fine. I use the Sealine 40 HV (4.9:1) and 40# mono.
