Default Re: what a drag !!

If I'm fishing heavy 20-30 lb. line on baitcasters, I'll lock the drag down tight unless I think I'm going to run into a super-big fish. When I fish spinning gear with 4-8 lb. mono, I'll leave the drag loose enough at all times to handle a run from a big fish. The drag should slip a little on the hookset, which is why sharp hooks are a must!
