    Bluefin | Penn Slammer IV 5500 | Nomad Riptide | Tiger Elite | TTWINS
    We are back aboard TTWINS! Putting the Penn Slammer IV 5500 to the test against FOAMING BLUEFIN TUNA. We weren't sure where we were as we searched for foamers a few miles past Catalina. We weren't sure how the slammer would hold up. But we do hope you enjoy this quick uncut video anyway! SUBSCRIBE!!

      Hi Jessie! Ugly Stik Tiger rods make great Penn combos. I have a couple of Tigers paired up with Spinfishers 6500 and 8500. I upgraded to a Nomad PE 4-6 to go with the Slammer IV 5500. Right lines🤙🏼🤙🏼

    • @MikeTOrangeCounty

      Yo… I would NOT recommend using a Penn Battle 3 6000 for BFT as it only has 25lb drag. You will get spooled. I have not seen a 7’6 elite jigging rod. But the 6’6 elite heavy jigging will handle.

    Very nice work, and nice patience towards the end. Do you feel you would’ve benefited from a rod with a bit more lifting power? I’m impressed the rod could pull in a small bluefin but it did seem to be about bottomed out as far as lifting. I’d imagine a fish that was 20 pounds heavier would’ve either won, or taken an hour to land

    • @MikeTOrangeCounty
      @MikeTOrangeCounty  Рік тому +2

      Definitely would’ve been better with a better rod. This was actually my kayak setup. However I did pick up a Nomad offshore rod pe 4-8. 🍻 cheers!
