I have reels with drags ranging from 20+ lbs. to 8. I typically don't fish a lot of heavy slop, so drag power, for me, really isn't that big of a deal. In my opinion, 8 to 10 lbs of drag pressure is plenty. In fact, I tend to adjust my drag pressure down a little and may bump it up some if I get into a good one and feel the need to slow it down just a tad.
Also, I should point out that I typically use 10 lb test.
i just bought a lew's Laser mg speed spool combo.I found it at Wally world. Original price was 99.00 and was reduced to 79.00. I liked the rod a 6'6'' mh fast action tip. And the 8 bearing 7:1:1 gear reel. The rod had the micro guides and split grip handle. When i got it home I realized the spool tention cap was missing. (probly why it was discounted) So I called Lew's and ask if I could buy a replacement cap. I was suprised when they said it would be no charge and I got it two days later. i can't wait to try it out on the water. In the mean time I'm certainly immpressed with their service...
