Recently I have been using 20lb powerpro. Before that I always used 30lb, but Pox gave me some 20lb and I like the extra casting distance and sensitivity. Sometimes I use a 20lb flouro leader.
I don't have major problems picking backlashes out with braid. In the past i had some nasty ones that needed to be cut out, but this was when I was first learning to use a baitcaster. These new shimano reels have such a good breaking system that my backlashes are much less severe.
