Nice old rod... Whats the line class rating on that 540?

Yo rated it at 20 - 40lb at the full length of 10ft. He gave a rating of 50lb on the high side for the 540s that he trimmed 6 inches off the top. I matched it with an old Shimano Speedmaster IV (6:1) and fished 30#. Had lots of fun jigging yellows and calicos with it. Then I tried jigging for tuna ! The first tuna I hooked yanked the rod right out of my hands! That Albacore Tuna went 57lb!
