This will probably open as big a debate as if you had asked about politics, but here is my .02

If you want to use mono with a limp one like Berkely XL or their Vision flourocarbon. They both have very little memory which should help. Many folks like the new spectra lines lines for a spinning reel.

I would not use Maxima on a spinning reel, as it is stiff and has a lot of memory. If you do use Maxima go down at least one size from what you would use in other lines. i.e. if you want 10lb test buy theri 8lb.

Maxima lines tend to be way underated. In other words it breaks at a much higher strain than indicated by their stated pound test.
