I use that reel pretty much all spring from a boat and if you are fishing from a boat and going after bass I would be comfortable going half and half on the spool to save some money. I have never gotten even close to the backing with fish even over 30 lbs and you can always chase them if need be. I use what ever I have for backing, usually dacron or mono. From shore I'd listen to the guys above and have someone do it as you really don't save much money trying to put it on yourself and the machine does a much better job and I'd go with way more braid to backing like I do on my shore fishin stuff. I like the uni to uni knot too if I am doing it myself but usually let the guy spooling it use what ever he uses. I never really asked him.
