Totally depends on what rig you are using and what you want to achieve, most people have it so it has a slight curve.
-
I always use them mate and never had a single problem with them.

Esp strip teaze buddy.
-
esp strip teaze mate. Although the supple part turns white.
-
Mate if you haven't brought the solar one yet don't bother as a wine cork is perfect.
-
If it's gravel you are fishing on I would use a 2oz inline lead, 3 or 4 inch of strip teaze, with a Raptor size 7 hook. Don't think there is a right or wrong answer to this question tho mate, just trial and error to see what works best for you on that water.

I don't use braid for my pop ups. In fact this year I have only used 3 hook link materials. Esp stripteaze, korda IQ soft, and drennen double strength for my zigs and floater fishing.
-
Oh yeah you need to strip a few inches of the outer coating off, use your teeth. Strip it back enough to make a hair, whip round the shank of the hook 6 or so times, and leave a little bit left so the hook can turn nicely. If that makes sense. lol

We have all got to start some where mate. Go to your tackle shop and pick up some esp strip teaze, I use 15lb in green. It takes on the colour of the lake bed mate, and blends in nice. I use a nice size 7 esp rapto D7 hook with it make. Pukka combo.

So you are using fluorocarbon at the moment and want to give braid a try? Why don't you try a fluorocarbon coated braid such as esp stripteaze
-
I use 6 foot usually and I join it to the main line with a needle knot.
-
Or if you are not sure try the new esp leadcore rigs, they are quality and not to pricey either.
-
Thats impossible to answer mate. If you are fishing on gravel you can get away with useing a short hook link, but if you are fishing say over silt you will need a longer hooklink.

I've done it I've finaly found a hook I'm 100% happy with. I've tried so many differant hooks on the market and most just have not been up to scratch, untill now. ESP RAPTOR D-7. Belive me these hooks are quality, I'm well happy with them.

I know what you mean it is very frustrating, if you'r allowed to use leadcore on you'r water I would use that.
