Nice looking rod, I need a stout rod to match with a 706 to take on that Costa Ricantarpon trip. Would you think this rod would do good? The fish will be in the hundred pound range. Im thinking a 20lbs rod is minimum. Really looking for a beefy rod???

i would use 17-25lb line and tarpon fish with this rod all day and then some. but thats my opinion. if you want to take a look at it, ill put a reel on it with 20lb line and you can feel how it loads up under pressure. if its not quite what you had in mind, i can build whatever specs you want. check your pms for my phone number and we'll get together sometime.
