I bought them for every day trolling with the ability to handle 100-200lb Class Tuna & Marlin. The drag on these reels are super and can handle the job. They are not a wide spool series reel and carry approx 450 yds. I would think you need 50lb or 80lb wide class outfits for the stud 400lb - 800lb fish. I don't know what size Fish /Tuna your wanting to target ?

My brother got a 120 # bft on a Penn 9500 ss spinner. Fight was over an hour. Sight casting.

Good Luck Chuck,
