FISH4U Believes in Small Reels for Big Fish!


Per Jonasson is living the life for sure. He has established himself as one of the worlds trophy Halibut hunters catching numerous fish over 200 LBS and some over 300LBS in the Northern Boundaries of Norway. He is fishing in Gods country, there is very little pressure on the fish, and releasing 100% of these fish to fight another day.

He recently gave us his report for the 2010 season and this is what he had to say:


"Once again your reels proved themselves! Helping us catch big fishes on some really small reels, all of my biggest fishes there caught on BX400XN and I used the same one for the full season! So it was working hard for about 110 days in a row, and it worked smoothly and great all the time, and as you know I really push my reels having them on maximum brake most of the time.
The biggest fish we caught 2010 was 7,12 feet (217 cm) (375LBS) and we used a BX500XN on that one, that fisherman and the rest of my clients during the last season were really impressed of how well this reels performed faced with this tough fishing for big Halibut's.


Big THANX for giving me the opportunity to fish with your Reels."


Per puts our products through extensive battles with these giants and lands his clients fish of a lifetime.

We appreciate working with Per and having him support us in our endeavors to make the best possible reels we can.

Tight lines,


The Accurate Crew

Super Cows on Accurate's ATD TwinDrag Reels




Qualifier 105 docked at Pt. Loma Sportfishing January 18 under Joe Crisci’s hand, after a trip into southern waters with 17 anglers aboard the Paul Lepore charter. There were two fish over 300 pounds aboard, and three over 200 pounds. Accurate Fishing Products was the primary sponsor.

Dick Allen of Fresno won first place for a 335.2-pound yellowfin.

“My best fish before was a 268-pounder I got on the Royal Polaris,” he told dock reporter Bill Roecker. “This one beat me up for two hours and 20 minutes. I’m 70, and he was a load. He came up on the starboard corner, thanks to a great crew.”

Dick said he baited a pair of sardines on 9/0 Mustad hooks tied to 100-pound Big Game line and 100-pound Line One Spectra. He used an Accurate ATD 50 reel and a Calstar 6465 XXXH rod.

Rookie Steve Benson won second place for a 328-pound tuna. He wrote about it and chartermaster Lepore put it on paper.

“My favorite fish came when I pinned on a sardine and let it fly one morning. The reward for a guy that was told he was in over his head was a 328-pound yellowfin tuna. I hooked this fish in the early morning and just about got spooled.”

Talking with Roecker on the dock, Benson said, “I hooked him in a gray bite, close, maybe 25 yards from the boat. He ran like hell, got all of the line and stopped. He stayed way out there, at about a 45-degree angle. The fight lasted an hour, and he came up on the starboard bow.

My best fish before,” continued Benson, was a 125-pounder I got in Hawaii on the troll.”

Two other cows came aboard. Bob Frank of Huntington Beach got a 235-pounder with a sardine on a 5/0 ringed Super Mutu hook. He said he fished with 100-pound Yo-Zuri fluorocarbon and 100-pound Line One spectra on an Accurate ATD 30 reel and a Calstar 770 XXH rod.

Dan Harnes used a mackerel under the kite on a boat rig with 100-pound Big Game line and 100-pound Line One spectra on an Accurate ATD 50 reel and a Calstar 6465 XXXH rod to take a 220.2-pound tuna.

Skipper Joe Crisci said this was the last trip for Qualifier 105 this winter. The boat will resume operations in April.
