6lb fluoro is lightest I would go but you can cast that SR-5 on 8 to 10 lb fine.

Due to smaller diameter, increased sensitivity, better abrasion resistance, near invisibility in water, and higher density making it sink, I would go fluorocarbon for a diving bait.

BUT, would pair that with a 6'6" plus L or ML rod that has a slow or medium action/taper.

A fast action/taper rod will be more prone to break that fluoro because it has no stretch like mono does.

But I'd like to cast that bait more than 22'.
