I flipped 30lb braid until earlier this year, broke 4 fish off this spring on Guntersville one had to be around 7lbs. Next trip down started flipping 50lb, no more break offs.
65# braid is the same diameter as 12# mono. Under usual conditions, I tie a 12# mono leader to the braid. With a frog and fishing in the slop, I tie it straight to the frog, no leader.
