Decent 30# outfits like you would use for bluefish, stripers, and bottom fishing will handle most of what is there. We're talking schoolie bluefins to maybe 50#s. Spool up with 50 # spectra for extra capacity. Will you get spooled by a 100# bluefin?...IF YOU ARE LUCKY!!!!
You can pick up a PENN 6/0 and a standup rod combo pretty cheap. 60# mono...Caught a lot of big yellowfins on that setup. Then you'll have a reason to take a canyon trip on a head boat!
