Tuna.Mack reel DECISIONS DECISIONS?

Headin out for a Mack & Tuna Bashin some time soon.
Now, I have been told these aren't Ginormous fish.
But are big enough to put my Gekka to "Pownage" point.
So I'm back on the Market for a new outfit.
I'm thinking a 4000 size reel around $300-400.
I'm looking at the Shimano TP at this point but open to offers.
Unsure on the rod, but at this stage of time.
I'm thinking a second Samurai.

Ta Kelson.

I use Daiwa Capricorn 4500j and a Shimano T-Curve KingMack for simular applications and find it a great outfit. Should do the job easily for you.

are you just using it for spinning only?

I use a 2500 certate on a 6-12lb loomis for all my tuna fishing n it does the job just fine so I would say either a 2500 or 3000 sol
