I've used Stren Superbraid, Fireline, Powerpro, and now Sufix. So far I like Sufix the best, but I see why some people in some situations like Fireline. Sufix is a lot thinner than Fireline, so for jigging, you'd be able to get deeper with the same weight.
I've used Sufix to pull some big fish through boulder fields and never had a problem, but admittedly if you're only concern is abraision, you'd be better off with mono. You can see any damage on Sufix and there does seem to be a linear relationship between the amount of line cut and the remaining strength. I had some 65 that was cut about half way through, and it tested out at 32 pounds.
The nice thing about jigs is that you don't need to worry about balancing the drag against the holding ability of your hooks, like you would with a plug & trebles. That's my biggest problem with braid.
