Your thoughts on a Trinidad 14A - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I caught a 50lb bluefin on my trini 14 It took awhile but the reel held up with no problems. I also caught and released a striped marlin over 100lbs on it while fishing kelps on the nine, it almost spooled me twice but the reel held up.

I`d say if your targeting 10-30lb fish with the occasional 50lber your going to be real happy with the trinidad 14 but if your typical catch is 50lbs you might want to jump up to at least the 16 and i might need to move to minnesota!

very nice, versatile reel that cast great.
