Also go by feel for surf just set drag so line comes off spool with moderate pull and adjust up or down depending on how running fish is taking line.As the spool goes down drag increases and sometimes have to back off when fish pulls out a lot of line on a run.------ Tried setting drags on 130*s with scale and setting at 1/4 breaking strength of 200 lb line but at 50 lbs of drag cant get free spool even with levers backed all the way back so dropped to about 35 lbs.
