Default Re: Chunking tuna setup advice

I have a cost effective setup. 7' Bogan rod and I bought a Penn Fathom 60 two speed on sale in the winter. The rod was like 200 and the reel was 160. I can put pressure on the fish!!! Reel is probably overkill.

I bought my own setup because a lot of the rental rods are junk on the boats. You'll have a tough time landing the fish on an old 6/0 that rocks sideways when you reel it.
