Does anyone have any feedback on maxel ocean max reels for tuna and tile fishing? Looks like a solid reel. Also, what size do you recommend for a dual set up?

I know a few guys that use the 05 and 06 for T&T loaded with 65lb braid and love them. They hold up very well.

I use an Ocean Max 10 for tilefishing. It is filled with 700+ yards of 50lb braid. This enables me to fish 750-900 ft depths without losing too much spool diameter which would cause loss of gear ratio. A size 10 would still hold enough 65lb braid for tilefishing. imo if you want to tile and tuna fish with 65lb braid, a size 10 is the smallest size I would recommend.

If I were to purchase the size 10 blue and silver and fill it with 500yds of braid could you give me an estimated price?

They may use the 06 with 50lb lol. Not 100% sure. Togman, give Dave a call, great guy to deal with!
