You can get away with a higher lb. test braid because of their thinner diameter. For example, 30lb. test Powerpro is equal to 8 lb. test mono for thickness.
Depending of the overall weight of your lures/plugs, you can probably go up to 50lb. test.
I use 30lb. test to throw 9" Slugos on 1oz. jigs.

Good luck.
