Rocky Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 OK, After a lot of reading and listening I have come up with a plan for starting out with these game fish. Please give me your opinion. I am going to get myself a TLD 25 and fill it with 60o metres of 30 pound line. I will stick this on a mid range 15 - 25 kilo stick with roller tip. Question is, do you think I will be ok starting out with this chasing yellowfin ? I know it is not necessarily the ideal, but it is what I cn afford at the moment. Your advice and opinion will be appreciated. Rocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

netic Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 That outfit will do you fine for YFT........When your talking marlin that will probably not do the job but for yft that is fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 Sorry raiders, yes, I am thinking for YFT as a rule. But while I am here, could I use this outfit for other types of fishing as well, a bit of versatility. Thanks again Rocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan L Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 hey rocky, that combo will slay most school yft, but when a bit bugger comes along dont get your hopes up i havent caught that many tuna but from the ones i have caught (25-30kg) even on 50lb tackle they pull bloody hard but yeah . . . tld's are awesome reels for starting out go get em' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
