Save your money

I just used 5 brand new cabo 80s for 4 days on a private boat, fishing for sails. After 5 or 6 fish we smoked 3 of the 5 drags, and 1 anti reverse. This was with 20 lb mono! These reels are not made for salt water. Maybe snook or yellowtailing, but tuna? SAVE YOUR MONEY. I have worked on private and charterboats for 16 years. I know good equipment. Buy a thunnus 12000 or a stella. It's worth the extra money. TW
