Pay attention, class is in session.

So, ya wanna pull Stretch 30's offshore. Problem is you gotta tighten the drag enough that its not leaking line, but if a fish hits hard, it snaps instantly...as young Jedi Runner has learned.

In this instance what you need is a paper towel. A wet paper towel jammed between the spool and the bridge will allow you to lighten the drag, without leaking line off. When a fish hits the paper towel comes right out and the lighter drag is in place.

Brilliant you say? Your welcome ;D

It works, been doing it for years.
