We fish all internationals but for our planer rod we use an old 9/0 senator set up with 200 pound braid and use a bridle rig with a #12 planer. I upgraded the drags to a 7 stack. Easier to manage /adjust with the star than it is with the lever in my opinion. Most Everyone around here does the same. Dont forget to have backing plates on your rodholder , a lot of pressure with a #12!!!!

I thought about asking your targets, being 60-90 miles south of you, but I haven’t been off shore here since fuel went to $4/gal and the kings were loaded with mercury, or of levels of concern. Decided to chime in following Craig (Miles Offshore) having fished with him once before, compliments of this site.
I have a set of two Pennsy made 4/0’s and same era 6/0 slightly used, matched to appropriately sized Senator Rods. Now that I’m fishing the Gulf of Mexico, wondering if these may be of more value to someone else. The rods are each individually discolored from UV, twisted from tip to wall/corner and more weight from handle side of reel, but barely used. Any interest? Michael.
