Honestly, if I hooked into a 50 this season i probably would have lost it due to drag failure on my penn.... i dont trust penns anymore.

how did ur drag fail?? The Ht100 drag on the penns is the best out there,i know guys that change out there vs drags an put the ht's in.did it lock up.I usually apply a little oil an wipe of well when i get in the water.u can't lock them up then.they also make a new drag locking nut with a little rubber washer to keep some salts an stuff out that helps. When i get in the water i usually pop em out an clean em before next trip only takes a minute or two.
