They didn't have an invoice so they had to average. Rod was actually 380US.
Another one for 480 cost me about 500 to bring in but the tube was overall heavier at about 9lbs with the rod weighing 11oz.

Is that the legend? ^ if so, that's a good price.

Thats an Avid actually, the Legend was the one for 480 that was a killer with shipping. This can be adjusted by calling the vendor and asking them to send in a square box or a thinner tube. Some vendors/manufacturers use a tube at least 1" thick. This adds up the shipping cost. If possible also its better to have customs average the cost so talk to vendors accordingly.

Nice, have to get my hands on one of those surf sticks once funds allow.

Did a lil banking in d gulf today, some cro cro, a few bechin, a few reds and 2 salmon, bout 7 stingray too. I find banking not good like before since dat damn oil spill.

[ryan99tt]

Some action some friends caught last week...

[reeLpACE]

a lil something a bredren and i did bout a mth ago
the first pic is a black jack, one of the largest blackfin we caught (one of about 20ish) and a small king
the second pic is just a pic of some tuna fillets

went out for wahoo and dollies but just found a ton of tuna...i'm not complaining but my boi on the boat we not as amused that the dollies and wahoo didnt want to show...sorry I didnt get a pic of ALL the tuna (was lil too tight & tired for that sh*t) you just have to take my word for it.

[X_Factor]

how do u all prepare tuna?.....

the couple times i ate what was caught and cooked locally....really didnt taste too good

hear this
penn battle 8000 or a fin nor 85??

[meccalli]

Stun em, bleed em. Remove bloodline. If too late, soak em in some evaporated milk with a few drops of lime or lemon/vinegar (buttermilk sub). I like em pan crusted with pepper and potato hash(grated fine). bonito or blackfin. Not a lover of sushi.
I have an entry level fin nor(first reel) freshwater and used it in salt forever, The battles, heard nothing but great stuff. Guys on stripersonline say its the best budget surf/offshore spin reel money can buy.

[ryan99tt]

I usually just bleed dem, take out blood line, chunk it up, season, add some lime juice and just grill dem slightly....dont overcook...an i make fish tacos...

[ryan99tt]

Also i wud recommend the battle...i beatin up one for ah few years an still going strong...

[reeLpACE]

Salt pepper and garlic, pan sear to medium rare like a steak.... Delicious!

[ryan99tt]

Rather tuna to mahi any day...

[DrunkenMaster16]

ditto last tuna I ate we filleted and bled out, was better than king or carrete.. salt, peper, garlic open bbq level heat till medium.
