Questions: Rod and Reel for Yellowfin

Aaron hit us up with an email. 

Hi my name is Aaron from boca raton and i want to go trolling for yellowfin tuna in the Bahamas but i don’t want to go and spend all of my money on penn internationals. Do you know of any alternative rod and reel combos and if so what kind of line should i spool it with.
                            Thanks,
                                    Aaron F.


This one is easy.

Shimano TLD 50W LRS. loaded with 80# braid. Best bang for the buck.

I hope that helps Aaron.  Send us a picture of that big Yellowfin.
