Me and buddy were trolling wire for blues a couple of summers ago only a mile or two off shore. I look back and see some fish jumping near the lures. As soon as I said "Look at That". ZZZZZZZZZZZZ, and my rod goes down hard, the tip nearly hit the gunnel. I had all I could to pull it from the rod holder. A few seconds went by with a steady hard pull. Then it took off like I was hooked to a train. Shimano TLDs don't hold much wire and it just started screaming. I tried to tighten the drag but there was no stopping this fish. We just watched the line melt off the spool to the backing.......then PING !!! All over.
That was the day I got the TUNA bug......
