Interesting solution Alex... That sounds like on hell of a road trip!!
Update - Me and Bill installed the lever drag cam and it looks like it's going to do the trick. A fairly simple install. Remove the drag adustmet cap and spring and the level handle comes off the reel.... Turn the handle over to the back side, take old cam out and install new one.
There is no longer a bait setting with this cam, the lever travels from free spool to strike with no stops in between and there seems to be a lot more line adjustment in it. Field testing this week.
BTW - Factory told me these cams will only work with Righty reels so once again you South Paws are screwed
