Like your setup. I only bring one rod/reel setup BTB and it’s the Penn Spin Fisher 65000 LL with 400 yards of 30lb braid usually tied (Alberto Knot) to a yard of 50lb Seaguar Fluoro with a black # 4 snap swivel at the end so I can switch out wire leaders. The rod is a 7’0” Penn Rampage. I think I’m still new to the BTB though. You never brought up that you bring a VHF or some type of beacon Incase things go real bad. I bring the ICOM IX-M73 Plus (with an Ipx8 rating), and I love it. I also have the Garmin Inreach Explorer + which is a satellite communicator in addition to GPS mapping. Biggest point is the SOS button among other qualities.

Forgot to add foam noodle Sabiki rig that Ty Sutherland from 30 Miles Out showed on his UA-cam Channel from way back when.
yeah, I use sabiki too, but not always, most of the time I just buy live bait to save time
