My Tweaker rod which I posted pics of several weeks ago was used to catch a new world record yellowfin tuna which weighed in at 403 pounds. The lucky angler used a Penn jigmaster reel and 40# Bass Pro line. IGFA certification is pending. Stay tuned for updates and progress reports.

No doubt this fish was caught on a MAGNETIZED HOOK, which is what irresistably attracted the fish to the angler's offering, resulting in the behemoth's capture and ultimate demise. And no doubt, he was caught from the docks around the in-water live bait cages for the offshore tuna fleet, right? By a 5 foot, 142# illegal alien. - LOL, -Cliff Hall+++

And here you have anglers fishin for these things with International 80s when a simple jigmaster will do. Some years ago had a fishing buddy boat a 100lb yf tuna using 15lb test line. Biggest yf on my boat to date!
