You will have to put on some backing. Mono at least 20lb for backing. Then I put on the braid and I try to end up 2 to 3mm below rim. Some conventional reels work better 1/2" below. I also use about 5 turns of flourocarbon 40lb or mono 50 or 60 lb after braid for the bass that are smart enough to dive and rub on the rocks. You will get about 100 answers on this one and no one is right or wrong.....its just what you like......have a safe summer
