i use braid on most of my reels
on a 7000 i have 80lb power pro over rough ground no leader,
also a 535 with 100lb power pro - rough ground with no leader just 80lb rig body & 40lb amnesia snoods with no problems 4 the last 3 seasons, it has a coating on it that i think helps with abraison.
another 7000 with 50lb whiplash on boat,
abu 6500 with 30lb spectra lite beach (flatties & whitties),
7ht with 30lb spectra lite beach.
spinning reels with 20lb & 30lb spider wire.
all does the trick but as said above in other posts power pro is by far the better imo but as said at a cost i have bought more of the spectra braid l8'ly as it has done me well with no problems & much cheaper.
the only other thing i can add is when buying braid make sure it is round braid & not flat, this is bad 4 bedding in2 the spool. i had 50lb flat braid on a boat reel & after a few good hauls of fish it was a nightmare i had 2 pull the braid off the spool 4 every drop so it will give u big problems trying 2 cast it.
