Tuna Popping Setups

Join Nick C. as he showcases his favorite tuna-popping setups, starting with budget rods & reels then moving into the mid-range, and finally ending with more high-end setups. He also recommends using Power Pro Maxcuatro Braided Line, which is 25% thinner than other braided lines. This gives excellent casting distance and more than enough strength to do battle.

    Solid info, man. I just got an Ocea Plugger 8'2, but I also want a Grappler C in a smaller line for some lighter applications.

    What do you think about the Saragosa 8000 for popping tuna? I intend to use it for live lining bunker for jumbo stripersin the ocean but thought maybe, just maybe, it could also be used for tuna. Really interested in your thoughts.

    If the tuna you are going for are mostly under 100lbs, the 8000 should be fine, since you are also going for stripers. If you are wanting to target tuna that are much larger, we recommend using a size 14000. Tight lines!

    The last rod is a Centaur not Penn if anyone was looking for it. Good video.

    Overall the shorter the rod, the easier it will be to catch a fish. It will however, be difficult to properly work a popper, if you are throwing a popper. Thanks for the questions!

    Hello captain, what length do you recommend for a spinning rod for tuna fishing?

    A nice 7' 6", medium power, fast action, 50-100lb line rating, 3-6 Oz lure rating. Would be a solid choice!

    GT lures require larger sizes, and a stiffer rod works better with these poppers. GT fights are shorter (10-15 minutes), allowing for more effort. Tuna fights last longer, benefiting from a softer rod. Stiffer rods keep GTs away from structures, while softer ones are fine for tunas.
