What I would do is fish light drag until you catch a couple fish, I would then switch over to heavy drag. I fish 20-25lbs on my reels with 80lb Momoi Hi-Vis. With the heavier drag you will pull hooks, which is why I said wait till you get a couple. I like it because if the fish isn't hooked right then the hook will pull out way early in the fight and not an hour or two into it. Also you can bring in smaller fish fast and release them and get back to fishing.

Good Luck
