"A little of everything including jigging" is just too general, but here goes..
The Stella is just a super reel and capable of just about anything. You have to set it up for what fish you're tageting. If you had to settle for one universal set up, I'd say 80lbs braid and have fun.
As far as what brand (Tuffline, Sufix, JB, ...) I'd say almost anything except Power Pro. The coating on PP wears off quickly, will get into the guts of the reel and make a mess.

For jigging:
The OTI marked jigging line, depthfinder (not bad)
Varivas
YGK
There are others JB , Tuffline...
The Stella 20000 is a +80lb reel no doubt.

Almost all the ones I've spooled go with 550 yards of 60lb JB hollow spectra, or 400 yards 80lb JB hollow spectra.

I went with 100 Daiwa boat braid (instead of 65 or 80). I do mostly jigging,So I went with the heavier line. I think if your planning on tuna in the NE this season, the fish are going to test even 100, I also found,For jigging,I like a metered line, and that it's valuable to to know exactly where your jig is.

There you go, just send the reel to Basil, tell him what you want to do with it, and let him spool it for you. :thumbsup:
