I would not use braid for trolling off a down rigger, the braid line picks up too much moss because it's going thru the water in a vertical motion. I used braid one time trolling off a down rigger and when I hooked up I could only reel in a little ways and the moss built up in my tip guide and I couldn't reel in anymore line, had to wip my rod thru the water to clean the moss out.
for kokanee I use 12 lb. mono and I've never had a problem.
