Default Re: Custom Tuna Rods

I have never seen someone fight a giant bluefin (at least a good sized on 700+) successfully with standup gear. With anything less than 80lb gear I don't think you would be able to turn the head of a fish that big - it would simply fight until it died and then plant itself on the bottom....if it didn't kill you first.
