I haven't been to Kona for two years, so maybe they are using 200lb JB with ATD 130's set at 60#s of drag. That's what I would troll if I fished every day.

i wonder if any of'em have been eye-balling the penn 130VSX

80# of drag @ strike!.......... 1900/yds o'200# spectre!...... and still room for a top shot?

Penn The Biggest Name in Fishing!

i figgered bluefin tuna, but with those last coupla big marlin coming in......???
