How to handle partially filled reels??

Fishing around the rigs out of Venice La. cut-offs are a part of the game. Every trip some braid is lost to the rig legs. How do you guys handle reels with less than full spools. Since 300' is about the max depth I ever drop I have started putting 1/2 spool of Boat Braid (330m) and backing with PP. Seems I always end up with an unknown amount of line on my reel and have several partial spools of Boat Braid. Anyone got a better way? I join Boat Braid to PP with a seven turn uni. Is there a better way?
I have line winder with accurate counter if that can help.
