Drag settings
Setting some of my Tuna spinning reels up
Most of what I read suggests 20% of your leader not main line for the drag in Lbs
So I set them up with a scale at 10lbs 50lb leader (pulled till the drag slipped)
Then I took the rod attached the main line to a stationary object pulled back on the Rod till the drag slipped .
OMG i don’t think I could hang on if I was hooked up even with a football tuna .. what am I missing or is 10 pounds overkill for stand up spinning
All carbons drag washer lightly greased
