Love the feel & smell of new gear.  See you at the dock in a couple of days, Allen! 

For 3-days, I bring setups for 40# bait, 30/40# iron, and 60# flatfall/jig. 

Good luck to you guys targeting BFT up here.

Is this low pressure system which is forecast to remain in place for at least a couple more days, likely to push the tuna away from the Monterey bay area?

Alright, order placed for Torque 25nld2 and 40nld2.  25 is going on a Seeker Lime Green CJBF75. 

Need recommendations on a heavier blank for handling that 50-60lb class.  I’m more partial to composite rods, grew up fishing glass and some of these newer rods are straight up crowbars lol.   I have a feeling I’ll take an asswhooping unless I’m on the rail the whole time. 

Hopefully I’ll get to join the party next year  :beer3

You gotta do it, my man.

I have absolutely no business being on this trip due to my print queue at work, but was made an offer on Tuesday night that I couldn't refuse.
