I was recently gifted an ambassadeur. I am not the best with bait casters, but I want to make this my go to pole. Using it for saltwater. I've made the mistake of putting braid on a bait caster before. So I want to go with mono. I just haven't used mono in a long time so I'm not really sure what's what.

Recommendations appreciated.
