30# power pro to a wing spans worth of 15# UG leader for steelhead. I connect the two with a barrel swivel because I am lazy. If the folks you are fishing with aren't capable of discontinuing their retrieve before the barrel swivel reaches the end of the rod, a bumper bead will keep it from doing damage or getting stuck.
