I fish 4 lbs at strike and 8lbs. at full.

Just kidding. Everyone has given great advise. Most important is letting the little ones swim. If you drag them around d!#king around with light drag for an hour they will not live. They are the future. For that reason alone it is better to fish with more drag option. Remember it is 28 lbs. at strike, only if you push it to strike.
