Hmmm. One thing that's been of great help for me is to not use a swivel. Of course I'm not striper fishing but fish for an equally strength of fish (Snook).
When I use braid, I try not to use a swivel and use a double centauri knot to attached the braid to my leader. I usually use a 30lb flouro leader. Some help on the knot can be found here: [url "http://www.videospider.tv/Videos/Detail/869357539.aspx"]http://www.videospider.tv/Videos/Detail/869357539.aspx[/url]
Its a very strong knot and doesn't slip like most line to leader knots when using braid. Also, when I mentioned adjusting the magnets I simply mean to make the adjustment on the reel that makes pulling line off when free spooled more difficult (whether the reel has actual magnets for this or not).
