i'm happy with my 50s for trolling........ but i personally wouldn't consider the 30 as being a "heavy outfit for aj's and tuna"

for that i think you'd want spectre on it for more line capacity and then you'd find yourself wishing you could apply more drag than it's capable of handling

dunno that for sure about the 30s (never tried'em)........ but the 50s will whoop 99.9% of anything the gulf can throw at it

and they're light too

i'm talking about their Graph-Lite lever drag reels tho.......... i'm not sure what a "powergragh" is

i say all that assuming your headboat fishing and need to keep'em outta structure and/or bring'em in quick

off a private boat?.......... i think they'd be fine except for the heavier YFT (100#+)
