No need to buy more if you have a real already set up. I use 35lb power pro with a 12 floro lead. The 35lb is on a real I use for bouncing pics. The floro leader is good for what ever you can catch on Simcoe. Never know when you might luck into a 30 plus laker. You could use smaller diam line but I have found that thicker diam is better when used for ice fishing for a couple of reasons.

I was using 50lb on the weekend, with an 8lb mono lead. I like to keep my leader as long as my rod on simcoe....its super clear.

 

worked fine, we hauled them like crazy. My first time using braid for them.

If you're going to use a leader with braid, here's an idea I picked up from Bass Pro and Senko maker Gary Yamamoto...

Make the leader long enough so that when you land a fish you have the knot and several turns of leader on the reel.

The weakest parts of your set-up are the leader to line Uni to Uni knots...Get them on the reel, safely out of the way if there are any boat side heroics.
