We originally considered naming this the Super 12T for tarpon, but then thought about all the tuna, sailfish, Mako sharks, bruiser dorado and other critters that this baby was designed for. With our perfect Super Large Arbor-to-Spool ratio, the 12X picks up line like no other . . . a feature you’ll learn to love! Use Spectra backing for added capacity. InterchangeABEL with a Super 12 and 4.5 reel or frame. If you’re passionate about tarpon in the Keys, Belize, Yucatan, the Gulf Coast or wherever they roam, this is the puppy you’ll want to bring to the party.
