Awesome for big fishMy main hali rod. Sensitive tip, with lots of power to horse up the big fish. Love it.

Backbone!These rods are awesome, have 2 setups for West coast waters. They've performed extremely well under pressure.

Lite, Sensative great rodpaired up with an Abu Garcia C4 with 30lb Braid. Great feel with this setup on a boat rod. Casts better than my other rods with same reel. So far mainly used for fluking but as winter comes I will be using this rod for larger game fish. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

awsome rodI have caught several large fish on this rod since I've owned it and it has performed flawlessly. My rod is the med heavy with the fast action tip it's paired with a Tekota 700, the rod is light but provides plenty of back bone on large amberjack and red snapper. The fast action tip makes for great bite sensitivity and positive hook sets!

I was looking at rod TLC66XXHBBL - XX Heavy. Will it work well with a 50W Fin-Nor Santiago, with 400lb test for Goliath Grouper fishing? If not any recommendations?
Asked by: Josephp732
Thank you for your question. That rod model is rated for line weight 80-200 pounds.

Because they generally don't make spinning rods at this weight class, can i turn this rod upside down and mount my heavy Penn spinning reel? What real difference is there except the size of the guides? The smaller guides should not be a problem?
Asked by: j l
This would not be suggested to do. Shimano makes heavy spinning rods. You can look at the Terez spinning TZS72XHBLK is rated for 65-200 lb power pro line.

Is the line rating for braid or mono? will it work for light fly lining baits
Is the line rating for braid or mono, and will the 7ft medium work for fly lining baits for small tuna and yellowtail with either 50# braid or 20-25# mono?

How well would this handed for 5 to 6ft sharks?
Asked by: Eramire
Thank you for your inquiry. Model:TLC66XXHBBL can is designed for a line weight of 80 - 100 lbs. If you're going after 5 to 6 ft. sharks, I would advise that model and that you of course use braid.

Good for rockfish?
I need a rod to match to tekota 500. For So. Cal. rockfishing we typically use a 16 ounce sinker. Would this rod be good for that or would it bend too easily? Thanks.
Asked by: fishingcrazynut
Thank you for your inquiry;
This would work for Rockfish.
