tess113 · 02-29-2008, 12:55 PM

I just bought this reel,and have decided it is just a little to big for me.
We dont get to much popping fishing in our area,so I would only use it a few times,and it would just not be used.
Anyway,it is brand new,with everything included,t-handle,spool cover,reel cover,washer,lube,and all warranty info,along with box.(see pics)
$550.00,includes shipping,and insurance,in the US(48 states).
I accept paypal.
If you would like to talk to me by phone,e-mail me,and I can handle transaction that way,if needed.

thanks....jeff

my fear is that it doesn't hold enough line in case a big tuna grabs it and runs. anyone have this problem?

You can put the 20K spool on it. That would solve the problem...unless you're mcgolfer

Bret thats not an issue and even if it was you can buy a 20000 spool. Thats the reel we use for casting to bluefins and it is almost overkill to be honest and all the fish are in the 85 and up class and honestly with 66# of drag you should be able to break a fish off before you get spooled

Most tuna under 100 lbs rarely take over 100 yard on 23 - 25 lbs drag.
I plan to use Stella 8000 for popping bluefin and yellowfin this year.
When you encounter 150 + lbs tuna, you definitely need a 20000 spool.

hm...then perhaps this is the reel for me.

ideally i'd want to put 100lb braid on and screw it down to 30lbs of drag to bust then quick....but i suppose 80 and 24lbs will suffice
