7'8" rod- 14 lb fireline
9 ft rod - 15 lb yozuri hybred
11 ft rod- 17 lb berkley big game
Boat rods- 80 lb power pro, 20 lb big game, 30 lb ande.

t.lapinski, I have used the Yozuri Hybred for three years now and love it on my 9 ft rod, especially when into 8 - 13 lb bluefish. One thing you should know about the line is that you don't want to go too heavy on the lb test as it does not flatten on the spool like regular mono. I only use 15 lb test on the rod. I started with 20 lb and what would happen is that when you would open the bail to cast the line would just come coiling off. So I went done to 15 and have never had a problem since. It's tough stuff, but cast very smoothly. I like it alot, hope this info helps.
