I ordered the behemoth on eBay. Every other store was out of stock. That, some backing and wulff floating line. I have a couple of rolls of seaguar premier fluoro leader that I use on my popping corks. I might try that for leaders.

If you're just targeting redfish, then don't focus so much on the drag. I'd suggest getting a sealed drag if possible, but if you're just fishing Louisiana waters it's not the worst thing in the world if you don't have one. Just keep your reel clean after use.

As others have said, redfish are not going to test drag or startup inertia in Louisiana. Sticky startup inertia is more of an annoyance than anything else. If you go elsewhere to fish, different story.
