But about 10 is light as I go on my leaders.
I am also a braid guy for all of my bass fishing. I currently use and am comfortable with the Alberto Knot for all of my bass fishing. In the process of converting one of my panfish setups over, I just wanted to know if the 15lb I already had would be too much. Needed some reinforcement that I didn't need to buy new line, haha!

Why 10lb test on the leader? Are you fishing heavy cover? I've been throwing straight mono in 4lb test on all of my rods so far and haven't had an issue, but I'm in pretty open water. Now you've got me curious; is there a reason I should bump it up?
