Fellow Anglers,

I have done alot of fishing up and down the coasts but have never gone on one of the canyon trips for tuna out of Jersey.

With my son working in Philly now, it gives me a launching spot to do a trip or two on the Voyager or the like this coming fall.

I know this topic has been beat up on here before but i wanted to ask to get some opinions on my gear.

I have a 6' all roller guides, Gold Cup, 50-130 lb rod that is married to a Penn Senator II 114H 6/0 reel.

I would plan on this being my stand up rod for chunking running 60-80 lb all mono.

Questions here:

1. is this adequate?
2. Line lb suggestions?
3. pros/cons

I am also kicking around putting together a Jigging setup. I have 2 Penn Senator 113h 4/0 reels. I was thinking of putting one of these on a 7' jigging rod "no rollers." would be looking to run 50 mono here. generally to do some vertical jigging.

Same Questions:

1. is this adequate?
2. Line lb suggestions?
3. pros/cons

I am open to all other opinions you might have. right now it is use the gear i have or rent gear. I already have it so I am leaning that way.

Matt
