I sold my tuna rods and Tiagra 50W LRSA reels two years ago when I was out on injured reserve. No regrets, and I am not going to dive back in. But I might have to pull out an old Penn 8500 and find a rod to put it on. Some rec fish taken very locally this weekend. So my question to the group is: should I invest in a rod for this reel, or am I guaranteed to be undergunned?
