    Bluefin Tuna Rod Advice

    I currently own two 80 Penn single speed reels on bent butt rods that are too long for standup. I want to get rid of them and purchase stand up rods for the reels but am not sure of what length or style i should purchase. The bluefins in cape cod bay range from 50 lb footballs to giants.

    Thanks in advance,

    Capt Keith

    Skipper,
    6' is all the longer you want. Anything longer than that and you are giving leverage to the fish.

    Keep me in mind if you decide to do it!

    Kevin just built me two amazing rods for giant fishing. I highly suggest using him to build your rods.
