14lb. .35mm red is one of the toughest lines that I have used. A bit slicker, and far more resistant to nicks, than 15lb. big game plus a higher breaking strength lb. for lb. than the big game. During drum season changing the line daily if nicks do occur is a small price to pay if you are after a trophy fish. My largest fish was caught last year a couple of miles north of ramp 34, (81lbs.) on 14 lb. red sufix. Another thing that I have found that if you buy in larger spools the line tends to be a bit less kinky when you do respool. Many variables, but I tend to use whan works for me and I don't have to worry about losing a trophy of a lifetime, due to poor quality line. But then again the world is full of spin doctors, and I guess the best thing is find what works for you, and stick with it until it changes.
Battened down and riding it out,
