Yeah that is great! I took my son a week or so ago before a sent him off to camp for a couple weeks. He got his first tuna about 75#. He thought he knew alot about fishing until he strapped on this gear... What a battle! I hear him often describing the blow-by-blow fight to his buddies on the phone. It is amazing to watch them peel line off the reel...really something. That sound is just amazing, I love it.
A friend lost one that took over 500 yrds of braid on the initial run and lost it after a 40 min fight....he was heartbroken.
All of the fish we caugh this year were packed with sand eels about 6-9" long! If the DMF can re-establish the herring fishery offshore we might actually grow some true giants again. But for now this is fun. I am trying to get one on spinning gear now.
