Hello Corvina,
Welcome to BWE.

As a fellow Fly Angler might I suggest the Clouser pattern in Blue/Yellow and Olive/Yellow also? In addition the Deceiver patterns in the same colors (with and without Fish Skull heads), a shad pattern, the EP Mullet and maybe a couple Dalhberg diver patterns.
If you're looking for a stripping basket to attach to your kayak, you might look into a stripping apron from a float tube or pontoon. Since my experience is from standing on my Outback while on a lake, I use a standard KR line tender (it's deep enough to hold the excess line but not so deep to be cumbersome) as opposed to my hard plastic generic (Orvis style) surf/wading basket.
Looking forward to reading a few reports.
