Hi, I would like to swap my Smith GTK 80 SJX for a topwater rod specifically designed for Tuna or a GT rod of similar value.
This rod is theoretically designed for YFT but the action is more suited for kingfish in my opinion, the tip is quite soft and works stickbaits very well but the mid section is stiff and good for pulling kingfish away from the bottom.
It's rated pe 5, since I already have options in that line rating for kingfish I would like a heavier GT rod or a rod with the same power but a more pronounced tuna action.
The rod has been used but it's in pretty good conditions, few small scratches on the blank and a bit of rust under the epoxy of the first guide.
If interested let me know what you have to offer.
I'm based in Auckland.
