Tom's 9/0 kit, alan's drag insert and handle, the bosses knob, SS gear and sleeve from pro challenger:

Trolled for a Mahi Mahi and I got lucky to get the hookup on my reel!  Overkill for such a fish but it was still very enjoyable putting one of these reels into use!  Everything performed perfectly!  Thanks everyone!

No such thing as over kill when you are trying out a beauty reel that one worked on and built !! Nice fish.

That looks like a very pretty way to break in a reel! Very nice!

Thanks for the report.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Nice catch and nice reel overkill or not. Next time hook a reel tester for fun. Good Luck

The boat had nothing but stock 9/0's and as we walked down the dock everyone had the same in their boats.  Seems to be the standard. Could have been a lot more fine if I hooked it on the narrow 4/0.  Oh well there is always next time.

Good work on the reel and that fish.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
