Yes, as often as I can remember after a trip.

Only potential drawback is if you loosen it too much, you might risk loosing the drag knob and washers if you're not careful. This can be painful on an expensive reel like a Van Staal (especially if you're in the water!)

Loosen only so much as to back off pressure.
