Diawa tournament 18-25lb it's not the thinnest of lines but is very strong and abrasive.
I'd also recommend Diawa sensor again in the 18-25lb range
I have a mate who fishes with 24lb sufix tritanium so think I might have a try with the 19lb this season
I scoured the web for line reviews a few months ago when I was looking for lines. Sufix Tritanium seemed to get the best reviews IMHO (with Daiwa Sensor a close second). Sufix Tritanium is well know for abrasion resistance (search for 'sufix Tritanium reviews' or 'lines on test by Dave Barham' and you will see the results of the tests of major lines). I use the 24lb in neon gold and I can not fault it (except for the fact that sometimes I cannot break it when I am snagged !).
Gear: Old Skool !

35lb on big reels. all with 80 shocker. Tritanium good too. trilene strong anarl
surprising how far you can hit thick line.
i now use a fathom 25N with 35lb sensor. casts well, sometimes get the **** taken out of me coz it looks like a boat reel, but boy is it easier to get the fish back out.
gone those days of whacking 18 sensor every time.
always have a selection of a penn 535 mag, 525mags and the big fathom.
ok ppl got a line sorted all may think its expensive but after reading loads of reviews and a went for teklon gold .40 and has a 40lb BS all goin nicely on a new 525 mag 2
after nesting the mag a few times and snags teklon gold was just to expensive so am going to give sufix tritanium in either 19 or 24lb, this is going on a 525 mag 2 would this be ok for winter fishing
