8lb should be fine, I even run PE1 10lb Sunline Super PE on one of my breaming reels. May not cast lures as far as the reels with the thinner braid, but its trouble free when conditions are tough.

Cheers,

I use 8 and 10lb line on my bream reels. Frog in 8lb and Rock Fish PE in 10lb, never needed any more pulling power and casts are still respectable. Less wind knots too.
