My new Tuna rig!

Yes I know, this may not be Adequate for tuna. However, I might try it just for fun.
This vintage Zebco fishing combo is a matching set from the late 1970's.
▪︎The reel is a super clean Zebco 404 push button spin-cast reel.
▪︎ The rod is a Zebco 4044 fiberglass boat rod. It is a 5' two piece rod. It's rocking a beautiful wood handle. The rod is a family heirloom which belonged to my grandfather. I had it rewrapped, and I had several addtional guides added. The extra guides are a big improvement over the 2 guides + the tip that originally came with the rod. The beautiful restoration was done several years ago by B&F Rod and Reel in Ontario, California.

I'm kind of limited by the reel on what kind of fishing I can do, but that rod is pretty sweet! I will mostly use it as a display/conversation piece.
