reel is good for 30lb mono...with 50lb spectra i would do a top shot of 30lb...rod is a lil light for that reel....for me in generally i would go with the in between spot of a rated rod for example a 20-40 rod would be 30lb your teramar is probally 20-25lb rod . You still could catch a 40lb tuna with it of course...now the confusing part some rods are now rated for spectra and not mono....
