I have used braid for bream fishing in Eire for years, Berkley make a great braid, and so do drennan. But the important thing is that braid can be bouyant and not too good in windy conditions where you get tow on the lake, rivers fine. Use a shock leader inbetween the braid and the hooklength, if not set your clutch lighter or you'll have bream lips and not slabs.
I seem to favour the drennan sinking feeder braid at 6lb, a long lasting braid.
You can also use power gum shock leaders, don't use a hook link under 3lb 2oz, unless you use the 4lb braid, and a light clutch.
But braid is nice to use when you master your own technique.
