STRONG Yellowfin TUNA On Tiny Stradic 5000!

Fishing offshore in Japan I hook an insanely strong yellowfin tuna on a tiny reel! My tiny Shimano Stradic 5000 was barely up to the task of catching big mahi-mahi and yellowfin tuna on this day. Fishing in Okinawa Japan is ridiculously productive this time of year, truly some of the best fishing in the world. We targeted fish with jigs, bait, and plugs. Fishing for yellowfin tuna is difficult at times, but so rewarding!

What rod did you pair with the 5000

[@danedonton7809]

I really like this type of fishing using a small reel for big fish the best

Dane Donton agree

I love the singing drag off stradic 5000 when you fight with tuna. That’s a super big size off YFT for 5000 size reel

Nice vid bro...what's the dimensions on that rod..?

Yeah I live in Minnesota, and I just bought a Sahara 5000 as my heavy duty spinning reel! Different game than the salt, that's for sure.

Yeah, I have a couple 5000s and a could 6000s. They are my bigger reels for sure. I run 4000s mostly for bigger salmon up here in Alaska. I've been wanting to get into shore fishing for halibut lately but haven't. That's what my bigger reals are for. 😂
