Re: "Daytime" Tuna Chunk Reel....???
How light do you want to go? I have an Avet LX6 with 150yd 40# braid backing & this year 30# mono top shot--180yd. Caught some big 60-90# tuna on it...Also, an Avet JX6/3(2 speed) with 40# braid & this year 40# 200yd top shot. Last year dropped a yellow 100#+ 30' from boat due to line fatigue--after 40 minutes with 30# mono. With the lighter line I found the 2-speeds are a GREAT help--new last year and it's much easier, at least for me. I did get a 70# YFT with it. I mostly flat-line with them-no more than 1/2 oz.
