Braid VS in the bay
I too used to use power pro braid in the bays too with seaguar leaders. My problem came when I would long line and the line just wouldn't sink very fast. Then a boat would catch my line followed by angry language and gestures. I have since switched most of my bay set-ups to P-line Halo. It's a fast sinking fluoro with minimum stretch (less then mono, but still some) and pretty good invisibility too. And, I don't have to tie leaders on all the time. This stuff is pretty tough and holds knots well. Yes, it's expensive, but nearly the same cost as Power Pro. I used to enjoy tying line to line leader knots, but setting up three or four for every fishing trip grew old pretty fast.
Like Bob said earlier, I like to use Spiderwire ultra cast on my small spinning reels with a fluoro leader. It seems to come off my reel smoothly when I'm bow casting between boats and docks. (Is Spiderwire considered a braid or a superline?) Those are my ideas.
