I'll second ditching the 30 lb spectra and step up to 65 lb. Also having a long top shot sort of limits the kelp cutting action of your spectra. 3-5 feet is enough. Having the shorter top shot also allows/forces you to change it more often. That way you don't end up with a old or questionable knot. Also if your mono or fluoro to spectra knots are not great you can use a small welded ring as your attachment. MIke
