I would start with mono. I find it much easier to pick out backlashes in mono than with braid, especially powerpro. Also, it has stretch which might prevent you plug from sailing off after a backlash. The problem with braids like pp, you can damage the line after a bad backlash and then lose your plug on the next cast. My favorite braid for conventional reels is spectron. Not as thin as pp but a lot tougher and easier to pick out.
