- Can I catch a 100 pound tuna on a spinning outfit?
What rods and reels are best and how can I accomplish this feat?
Expert advice with Sam De La Torre from Island Fishing Tackle in Carson California.
Invaluable information for the fishing world. Thanks Phil!!
Thank you so much Michael. I am so lucky to work with people like Sam. He’s not only an expert but a really great friend. And so are you. Thanks for your great support.
Definitely can. I’ve seen people fishing the Shimano Stellas. Phenomenal reels. Have seen numerous upon numerous 150-200 pound bluefin caught in a matter of 30 or so minutes. These spinning reels aren’t like they were in the 90s and early 00s. They hold up the fight no problem
Great stuff. Thank you so much for sharing as we always love hearing from you.
Don’t forget that people fish the poppers on these spinning reels on monster tuna as well. I have a setup for them also when they are foaming
100% my friend. Great stuff
Definitely there’s a learning curve on spinning gear. Love spinning tackle. Stick to jigging rods less than 6’ for 100lb bft+. Stay away from 8 foot plugging rods, unless you’re a real man with a strong back. Any reel would do the job with 65lb braid, 300yards minimum.
Such a great share; thank you.
I will say be careful with the daiwa's in that 250 price range. The only reason is the saltist uses (admittedly large) zinc main gears. The penn battle uses aluminum and the DX uses Brass for half the price. The Saltist may be fine but id feel a lot more confident with brass or stainless steel. Saragosa's and Slammers hold up fine in my experience and the slammer dx gets you into stainless gears. Twin power and Catalina are phenomenal reels (i'd trust a penn authoruty but haven't used one.) and a Saltiga is my preferred at its price range but Stella's are great.
I Love Daiwa but man i wish they stepped up the main gear materiel's.
I bought a Seeker 8' foot rod with a Shimano Trinidad 20a and had the worst time casting it out trying to get the bluefin that where at Catalina on a party boat. So i decided to buy a brand new Saragosa 20000 with a daiwa 7'4 Proteus and try my luck again this year. Good luck out there this year Lady's and gent's hope you catch your Dream fish
Lovely comment. Thanky ou so much for taking the time to visit us as we wish you good luck this season. Hope you catch your trophy fish and many more. Thanks again.
Make spinning reels great again 🇺🇸🤣 I don’t use them but have seen some nice tuna caught on them . It’s nice to have the rail when needed, but they sure do work fine on the larger fish.
Right on Travis. I’m going to give them a try and see how it feels.
👍🏽🤌🏽🙌🏽🤑😎🤑🙌🏽 Good Info🤌🏽! I'll Be Down To Islands Tackle Soon, Need A Pole 👍🏽!!!
Say hi to Sam for me. Thanks for watching my friend.
Dont be like me 4 years ago when i was new to fishing bought a stella 14000 only to go out and catch 80lb tuna 😒 overkill saltist is perfect or saragosa
What’s your take on the Penn Fierce 6000 or even the 8000?
Hows the supply chain?
Looking for the Penn Carnage III No
1545843 CARBWIII 50100S802...New Boat rod spinning rod...2022 Penn.
I’ll have to check on that for you Scott
I just bought reel Okuma Cedros 14000 and wonder if i can use with my amateur rod of 3 feet that is for 20gr to 80gr ?!
Any info would be appreciated.
I asked Sam De La Torre from Island Fishing Tackle about this and he is not familiar with the rods you mentioned. Let us know if we can help in some other way my friend. Thank you for sharing.
The Aussies and Kiwis use spinning gear to target big tuna,
100% Jeff. Thanks for pointing that out. I’m thinking of giving it a try.
@@FriedmanAdventuresPodcast you never know, you might prefer spinning gear.
On the east coast they catch them all the time no problem.
What store is this

Good luck using the rail with a spinning rod to leverage a big fish
Definitely one of the cons Ron. Thank you for sharing.
Don’t need the rail. Fight it like a man.
I don't care if you have a 1400.00 Stella coffee grinder if you're fishing it on a busy tuna deck with large tuna yourenick name is going to be hacksaw
Lol
