The PENN Ally II standup trolling rod is built for targeting the biggest European Bluefin Tunas. Its one-piece tubular blank uses X-wrap technology to prevent rod twist under heavy load, helping the angler apply maximum pressure with a mechanical advantage over the fish. With tapers suited to offshore trolling and quality craftsmanship, the Ally II is a strong candidate for heavy-duty trolling work. The rod is fitted with PacBay Roller guides with under-whipping, components chosen to handle the biggest fish in deep water. The 5ft7 80-130lb model comes with a short bent butt, aimed at anglers who prefer to fight a tuna stand-up. EVA foregrips add comfort during long battles and improve grip against hard-pulling fish.
