1988/89 Bacardi!!!! I used a old / 6/0 senator and 50lb ande straight to the hook!!! simple and cheap caught at least 10 every trip all summer. I think I totaled over 100 for the summer!!! Those were an honest 80-120 lb fish!!! I made enaought to buy a 50tw.I think i paid $249 for the reel with line!!! That was a nice upgrade!! I have not caught any like that in a long time!!! these little 40-50 lb I catch on bluefish gear!!! ohhh the memories!!

Ha! Coley was the best! A modern day Popeye if I ever did see one. He'd cut your line if you used under 80# test. Never forget one fabulous trip where we tied into a mother load of big eyes. Boat came back into the bay way low in the water, fish were all 150+ Huge yellow fins, Allisons, man, that was a gret boat to tuna fish on!
