with many of the guys here on the site singing with the 20# back country i would have to say go for it for a #20 line that can take some abuse, as far as the Suffix line is concerned i tried 2 different styles the tri something and the seige both to me lacked what i needed to be on top of my game. the seige 17# really isn't that great as it's super elasticity, the 20# tri by suffix has real low memory and doesn't stretch as much it's a great sandy beach line but it can't take the abuse of heavy rocks.

Yozuri Hybrid, I tried this line in it's 25# size years ago and loved it since then i have played with it in different sizes from 10# - #60. I think it's one of the most durable lines on the market with #30 being my favorite and spooled on both my 6500 baitrunner and on my 7001abu it can handle the abuse of rocks and still drag fish.


With braided lines, well in a rock pile from a boat it's a different story... but on shore i wont' throw eels or herring with it in the rocks, not only is it expensive but it just doesn't hold up. I've thrown gorrila, spider, powerpro, stren, and a couple of others and i will only use them for plugging or for straight up and down jigging or bait fishing from a boat. There used to be a jet black braided line i forgot who made it but cant find it anymore, that stuff was like steel.

hope that helps.
