I like the reels overall but I don't like having to turn the drag knob so much...especially if I am using very light line and I want to "back off" on the drag a little...

I agree with you on this. The endless knob turning is a bit of a pain. Great reels aside from this function. I'm wondering if they've modified this on the new LT models.
