The Sunset Baroudeur Tuna Trainer Rod is a specialized fishing rod designed for offshore trolling and tuna drifting. It features a one-piece composite blank constructed from carbon with added fiberglass, providing exceptional strength to withstand the powerful runs of the most combative fish. The rod is equipped with Fuji HB SiC guides mounted in a spiral "Acid Wrapped" configuration, which enhances power and eliminates twisting during battles with bluefin tuna and other pelagic species. The high-density EVA triangular handle ensures a firm grip during intense fights. Additional features include an aluminum gimbal with an anti-shock knob, an ABS PacBay butt, a tubular aluminum reel seat with double locking rings, and a nylon carrying case for protection and portability.
