1. 30lbs braid and up will do the trick. Hook set is spot on.
2. leader.. i use 25 -30 floro.. easy to tie and super strong
3. rigs.. what i do is tie on my bottom jig then run up about foot or less and tie a dropper loop for my teaser.. then u can cut and attach to a swivel or what i do is run out some more leader and just tie that to my braid to act as my leader as well as my rig..
4. bucktails.. there are a lot out there.. i will use most times a 2oz Spro for my bottom and a 1/4oz Spro for my teaser.. there are so many different combos.. weight depends on conditions. color.. there are so many.. chart is good and find other colors to work as well.. id buy some from 2oz to 4oz for your bottom and some 1/4oz - 1/2oz for your teasers.. in different color pairs..

good luck.. that set up there i have picked up a lot of nice summer fluke with..
