I use the full wide back belt and the brute buster on drop straps, the plate could be a little heaver I think, as it would not tend to climb as much. To anwser your question, yes they work well.

I'm looking at these. I like the Alutecnos plate and the Aftco harness. OTR is supposed to be an outstanding harness as well. Aftco Maxforce Stand Up Harness and Aluminum Rod Belts
I like this plate because of the cup for the rod butt. No sliding when cranking hard against a lot of drag. Mine is a private boat application and I would not have to clear to get around other anglers or other obstructions. Those are things to consider when locking in. I'll also have a safety strap for the solo gig. Alutecnos Fighting Belts and Harnesses
I like the Alutecnos pro-bucket harness too but the Aftco will be cooler and provide almost as much support.
