I use 17# XPS and Trilene. I do think the jump from 15 to 20 is stupid. People who think it's not look at the difference in 10# and 15# strength.

Try 17 lbs McCoy... flouro and mono. That is the line that I use, and am super happy with it.

T-Line still makes it. I've been using it for twenty years.
"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

I just bought some 17 lb. Suffux Siege at Academy. you will now be fishing with a bungee cord. I tried the suffix 2 years ago and couldn't get a decent hookset with it because of the stretch.

I have never seen 17# big game....only 10.12,15, 20. Where are y'all getting it? I've use 17# Trilene XT, but it is pretty springy.
