Pretty much any reel you decide on will have enough drag for stripers. As stated above, you'd be surprised at how much drag 15 pounds is. And Rockfish9's post hit the nail on the head.
I'm one of those people who learned about setting the drag too high the hard way.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
