WTB Tuna Setup

[Dead Eye]

Looking for 2 good used tuna rod/reel combos. Want used do to budget restraints. I will add to these starter setups each year till I got the spread I want. I want to buy something that will last a few years. Anyone have any reasonable priced equipment they are ready to part with. They will be used on a 25ft boat looking for shark/tuna. For trolling and chunking.
Thanks, John

Get some penn senators the 6/0's have no problem with big tuna and their around $150 for a combo

Exactly what I was thinking. I have some that I still use for bailing dolphin and trolling for spanish, but I can't tell you how many yellowfin I killed with them.

Plus, Capt Harry's has every part for them you could ever want.

Picked up 2 penn senator 9/0 reels and need rods to fit them. Looking for 2 50lb class tuna rods. Anyone?
Thanks John

Sells some cheap rods for that class. $70 or so I believe. Good rods,(can't remember the name), I've used mine for 2 season NO problems.

I like the TLD's over the Penns. They are much smoother and have a better drag setup. Also easier to handle in a smaller boat.

John,
