Target Species & Techniques

The Tranx 400 B is built for heavy-duty applications where a low-profile reel is preferred over a conventional overhead. Ideal for slow-pitch jigging targeting Dhufish and Baldchin Groper from the boat and the deep cranking for Mulloway in the estuary, or throwing large swimbaits and vibes for Samson Fish. Also well suited to trolling applications and heavy estuary work.
