Hi Jamie,
I always respect your opinions as they are practical and come from actual longptime fishing experiences, not from the desk.
I use braided lines exclusively for jigging and it is still pretty heavy drag even for 25 percent of line lbs as I use heavy braided lines (80 lbs for tuna).
I lost two tuna as 80 lbs braided lines got broken off while fighting tuna a few days ago even I used only 21 -22 lbs drag.

I replaced the braided lines with new ones though they were pretty new. I found braided line get damaged easily unlike mono lines.
