Re: 20lb Braid too much?
When it comes down to it you don't really need to be that fussy with the braid (as a beginner anyways), as long as it isn't the cheap and nasty stuff then it will be ok.
For soft plastics I usually use the berkeley fireline exceed as it is often on sale (recently $5 for 150m in bargain bins of anaconda), actually coming to think of it its on most of my reels. Havent had a problem with it.
If you can afford it tho.. always buy the best you can get! I always shop for bargains and go with the cheapest quality stuff.
I normally run 4lb to 10lb for soft plastics, but as a beginner, grab the 10lb.
