Setting brakes?

Fished baitcasters a long time, but never been one to really mess with the breaking systems.  Anybody got any experience with this? If so, how many do you  have on for your flipping reel, spinnerbait, and crankbait?

    What brand of reel,they have different systems. Magnetic,centrifugal and hybrids( cross between the 2) and I am probably missing some

    The question might contain the weight of the baits you want to throw, as both brakes and spool tension knob adjustments will affect your cast

    Mostly Quantums...size baits usually are 1/4 oz for my plastics and crankbaits usually 1/4 as well
