What pound braid do you use?

I have recently been using 8 pound with 4 pound leader and getting some pretty decent results. What does everyone else use when it comes to fishing with braided lines? What pound leader does everyone use and how long is it?
Cheers

Usually 16lb braid and 6-10lb leaders, rarely more than 1 rod length of leader.

Probably the better question is what diameter line you are running

For me 0.6PE

i generally use 0.6PE lines and a 3lb leader when fishing open water or no structure and 4lb when on structure. You win some you lose some, but often the 4lb is needed to get the bite
