Is that a Daiwa 30 lever drag? I caught two tuna on mine already this year. Wicked good action.

Mine has the MOJO. Just not when I'm using it.

Sure is, it does work great, It has taken several footballs already. The drag is good and smoooooth.

How are you setting up the line on it?
I have it near filled with 80 spectra and about 150 foot top shot of 80 lb mono for the initial strike and run.
