I have a TFO professional series 7 wt that i built, and will probably be getting an okuma integrity. I would like to use this rig for smacks in the surf and jetties. I know its a little light for windy conditions, but what line would be best for this?
Ive been told that a clear intermediate line would work, but is this the best option? And if so, what brand is best?

One last question, and sorry for bugging y'all, but what setup should i use for this?
Obviously i need some sort of heavy mono/fluoro or wire leader, but what would work best?
There was somebody i knew who used 3-4ft of 35 lb fluoro attached directly to the line. would this work? or should i have a normalish leader with just a thicker tippet?
