I do the same thing when my braid Starts to look sad(it takes a while) then I flip it. and I also learned 65lb braid is basically what I run with on everythig.

65lb braid all my serious reels. Strong enough for what I target and haven't had to change it out yet. (3seasons). 30lb braid on my spinning reels used on my float tube or while shore fishing.

When breakage becomes common. I went 11 years on the same braid backing ( transfered it to 4 different reels during its service ) before chucking it. I've also changed out braid after 1 season. It just depends, if it still works use it.
