That setup will work. I do prefer a 2000 size reel for that rod with 4 lb. test mono. As you know, the 75 Lunakia has enough backbone at the butt to set the hook on a Ned rig bite, but still bends nicely up top to protect light line. I mostly use an Exist 2505 with 5 lb. test mono line for 1/8 to 3/16 oz. lures on the 75 Luna now.
