Drag

Wanted to get thoughts on initial drag settings at strike and what are normal drag pound settings during the fight and what are considered maximum drag to use on SWORDS?

Fish the drag light out of the rod holders and button it down to strike at about 15lbs once you get a fish pulling drag. That should get you started just fine.

Good Luck
