![]() ![]() As long as your output dragforce is less or equal to the weakest link in your setup you are fine. Drag 4.0 kg (8 settings)Ĭan I use the reel even in the highest (8th) setting - which sets the drag to 4.0 kg - without breaking anything unless the fish takes all the line (AKA spooling)? ![]() Rod: JigWinner 270, line weight 1.5 - 6 kg I am not sure if I completly understand this, best for me is an example given: The one warning you must not ignore is if it says lure or bait is too heavy for rod as this will result in rod breaking on a full cast. If done correctly only the reel should reach the verry top of the red zone and the rod and line should reach a max at one or two segments from the top. You can select option to cut the line in this situation but I can say that I have never had to cut it. Always use plenty of line on reel as without the ability to break the line, if the fish should be a monster and take all your line off the reel, it can then destroy your reel. Dont forget that any leaders used must be heavier than the mainline or it may break. Maximum drag of reel is not when that reel will break but what the maximum drag it can provide, so if you use a reel with a maximum drag just under the breaking strain of the line and recomended rod,in your case it would be in the region of 9.5 to 10kg it can safely be set to maximum drag, without risk of breaking and still utilising the full potential of the rod.
