I've got mine on a seeker stealth 8' 15 (20) 25. I think the model is STL8020. Bad ass setup. I've got mine loaded w 40# braid and 25# fluoro. Mostly use it for smaller stuff but I did bag a pair of 40# wsb on it this year. Killer rig for 'local' offshore tuna.

I saw this guy with a white terez mh/sx combo on my last charter trip and homie was killing the bluefin. None of that butter drag either killing one by one and limiting out. He didn't take long either about 15-20mins per fish. Most were in the 30lb range and a couple in the 40lb plus range. So the sx is the real deal. I was impressed.

I have a Terez Waxwing that I have my Curado 300EJ on and I was thinking something similar but with a little more back bone for this reel. I love that rod with the Curado. It's fantastic for pitching the smaller waxwing and jigs in the kelp for Calicos.
