Ah, the joys of braid! I made the switch from Fireline to Power Pro last year. Lost 2 nice (I;ll never know how nice) fish on the hook set due to the line burying in the spool. This was after catching a few 20 lb. fish. The best way to spool is to tie the line to a 100 lb kid and reel him in. Set the drag a few pounds higher than you normally would. I usually use a leader of lesser pound test as snags become a problem, especially on a drifting boat. Don't wrap the line around bare skin!
