Daiwa Tanacom 500 Nearshore Halibut Combo

Daiwa Tanacom 500 Halibut Combo

Built for serious nearshore halibut anglers, this combo is dialed in for the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Strait of Georgia, Puget Sound, and nearshore Pacific Ocean waters up to 400 feet deep across Washington. This compact rig handles sinkers of 1 to 2 pounds and takes the physical grind out of deep-water fishing entirely. We're outfitting it with the Daiwa Harrier X Jigging rod in xx-heavy power, light in hand yet engineered to handle the abuse of dropping big sinkers and leveraging up big halibut, paired with the Daiwa Tanacom 500 power-assist reel, which takes the effort out of fast bait checks and cranking fish up from serious depth.

Rod & Reel: The 5'8" one-piece, 80-plus pound rated rod delivers surprising strength from a lightweight blank, while the Tanacom 500 reel's motorized assist (power cord included) makes repeated deep drops effortless through a long day on the water.

Line: We spool this combo with P-Line EndurX 65 pound braid, with the reel holding 400 yards, plenty to fish our nearshore banks and most offshore locations.

Best For: Nearshore halibut anglers in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Strait of Georgia, and Puget Sound who want power-assist ease on deep drops.
