Landed a 130 lb blue fun on this rod with straight 100lb braid and heavy leader I was able to fight and land the fish quick.

Multipurpose rod

Purchased this rod and paired it with a pen torque 300. It performs flawlessly when jigging for bluefin tuna and have caught fish up to 60” on it. It also is sensitive enough that it works well as a bottom fishing rod for cod and haddock. Even found a needle in a haystack and hooked a 200 pound class Thresher vertical jigging for cod and this rod had more than enough to do battle.
Pros
- Extremely light
Cons
- Would prefer a stranger reel seat but with a reel clamp installed it?s a non issue.

I really like the weight and action of the rod. The real seat came loose on my first time using it so I don't believe the quality is there.
Pros
- Action, Weight
Cons
- quality

66XH paired with a Tekota for rockfish, halibut, kayak dropper. Won't fatigue you after hours at the rail, plenty of strength to winch up anything from the bottom.

Bought a two of these (one conventional and one spinning) a couple of years ago and no complaints. Great for live baiting from NJ piers. Both paired with Shimano reels and Power Pro. Handles very nicely.

Would the 7’ medium or 7’ medium heavy be better for blackfish fishing? I’m looking for a rod with a good backbone but with a good bend to it.
1 Answer
You want the MH. It should provide the backbone you need, but still provide the sensitivity to detect the bite.

Would this rod be good for a avet g2 sx 6/4?
1 Answer
The Shimano TLC70MHBBL Tallus Blue Water Conventional Rod would pair well with the G2 SX 6/4. The balance with the reel and the rod along with line rating for both will make for a good combo.
