Hey mate,
The shooting head you are using, is it for salt or for fresh water?
Also what weight set up.
I have made up quite a few running lines over the years for specific situations.
Deep water dredging over reefs, fishing the Tongariro in New Zealand and general distance casting.
Perhaps a little bit more info and we can see what best suits the situation.
Your quickest fix at the moment and probably the easiest solution would be to get a level floating line and use that - most tackle shops should have one lying around. They aren't as popular as they used to be. Another alternative is using hollow core braid or dacron as a running line, but this is prone to tangling in windy conditions. Ideally you need to run a light but stiff mono up the guts and stretch to buggery. Whip finish both ends with a small loop and you're set.
