ADVERTISE HERE

First off congrads on catching the biggin. Second I got a question or few haha. I live down here in the Carolina's and I got to do some tuna fishing this past winter. It was the first time doing it and I was trying to learn a little. We had the penn 130's internationals and we had min of 400 lbs test on the reels. I notice that you had a spinner reel. What # test did you guys have on that spinner. Sorry if I missed it while reading your story. I would think you would have ran out and the reason why I think that is 1 when we got ours on that baby ran for 2 mins straight (might have been longer not really sure). And 2 I didnt think you can put as much line on a spinner.


I have heard some people say that tuna fishing around here is way different than fishing up in the New England area.

Can someone explain how that is please? I'm always into learning some new info especially fishing like this.. And like I said im New at all this sport fishing. I'm usually just doing bottom fishing on a head boat. I want to learn how to troll and all that so bad.

Thanks again guys
