A weight-forward (WF) line should be OK but a saltwater taper line would be best. It's designed more with the weight better distributed for the ususllay larger flies we use in the salt. Like a bass bug taper is made for casting larger bass (freshwater) flies. I don't think you need a specialty taper (like a striper taper) line just yet.
Get a floating or intermidiate line. That will handle most casting-to-fish situations.
I agree about the backing. However, be sure to use 100 yards of 30# backing. Don't use 20#! It's just too light.
