I often fish the less snaggy areas with a 6lb braid to 3lb fluro setup. I would recommend that you put quite a length of fluro on however because I read that you are having trouble with your knots in the leader. The extra length in the leader should give the knot a bit of relief, that's what I have found at least.

But definately back the drag off. otherwise... bye bye lure and even worse bye bye fish .

there is absolutely no reason why you can't. if you're a little unsure about something, its good to ask but its best to try it and see the results for yourself.. experimentation makes fishing that little more fun!
