Salt Strong | – How To Set The Drag On Your Spinning Reel (With Or Without a Scale)

If the drag isn’t set correctly on your fishing reel, you could be missing out on fish.

If it’s set too high, a strong run or head shake from a fish could break it because there’s no give.

Also, some fish like trout and snook have thin mouths, and the pressure from the line may rip the hook out of it’s set too high.

On the other hand, if your drag is too light, you could get spooled, or get a weak hook set (which makes it easy for a fish to spit your hook).

So how do you set the drag just right?

In this video, I’ll show you two ways to set it correctly:

– With a scale
– Without a scale
