I use a large capacity spinning reel (FinNor) that I've used for tuna in the past. I have 80lb hollow core braid on it but I'm thinking about re-spooling with 25lb spiderwire. I could probably get 600 yards with that.

If you watch the video, there's a distance meter in the bottom of the drone screen. I drop the lure at just about 1200 ft out in this one.
