Rod & Reel

You need atleast a 50-130 pound test rod. You will also need a reel that is a 6/0 or 9/0 if you plan on doing alot of offshore fishing with big game fish. Penn makes good fishing rods and reels.

Penn ® Tuna Sticks ® Rods

Great for all kinds of Billfish and Offshore Species. Designed for stand-up fishing and trolling. The ARA and ARS series all have AFTCO ® roller guides and tip tops plus the color graphics match the International ® rod series. The ARA series features AFTCO detachable anodized aluminum Unibutt ®. The ARS models combine the AFTCO machined reel seat with the Penn Slick Butt ®. The RCSS series features the Penn Slick Butt, heavy-duty graphite reel seat with aluminum hoods, AFTCO rollers for the stripper and tip top while the remaining guides are chrome-plated stainless ring guides from Perfection ®.

Penn International ® Big Game Reels

Penn International® Big Game Reels The unmistakable gleaming, corrosion-resistant anodized gold of Penn International sets you apart as an angler who fishes with the best. The forged-aluminum spools are machined for precise alignment, and the 1-piece machined-aluminum frames provide the utmost in strength and rigidity. Powerful lever drag system with super-smooth and durable HT100 drag material along with adjustable drag control knob and freespool, strike and full drag settings. Adjustable drag clicker on 80STW model lets you set just the right amount of tension for your fishing style. High-strength, machine-cut stainless steel gears; ultra smooth, shielded stainless steel ball bearings. All 2-speed models have the Penn exclusive Two-Speed system that lets you instantly choose between fast retrieve speed or low power speed with the push of a button.

         The 130ST is a good reel but it cost alot($1199.99). It hold's 950 yards of 130 pound test.

These rods and reels are more afordable, yet they have the same qualty.

Penn Senator ® Rods

Brutishly strong, with solid fiberglass blanks built right through the butt--for trolling or bottom fishing, a Senator rod is an outstanding choice. Its longer, thinner Slick Butt® handle is designed to slide easily from a rod holder, so you can react to a strike quickly. Anodized machined-aluminum reel seat; cushioned foam foregrip.
Two styles: the WL Series is designed for wire-line trolling and has all standard carbide ring guides and tips; the RS Series handles most other approaches and has a Stuart® roller stripper and tip with sturdy chrome-plated ring guides through the middle.

Penn Senators® Reels

These classic reels feature tough molded side plates and 2 chrome-plated brass rings with chrome-plated frame posts. Precision machined stainless steel gears and spool spindles. Penn star drag, torpedo handle. All reels feature HT-100 drag washers.

            These are cheaper reels. A 9/0 is a good size reel for about $130. It should hold all the line you would need.
