Senator 113 drag

[Rob Ciminieri]

Can anyone tell me if the easy access drag kit will work in a 4/0 black. I am looking to build more drag

not sure what you mean by an "easy access drag kit," but you have a couple of options with the black side plate 113.  i use five of the #6-60 drag washers and a metal washer kit to match, plus a carbontex drag under the main gear.  i also recommend a stainless steel gear sleeve for this reel and 24-56 jigmaster power at the very least.  if you need help with any of these parts, please let me know.

Alan what kind of drag can i produce set up like that

[alantani]

reliably, 10 pounds for a working range.  this reel has one of the lowest "power to weigh" ratios of all the senators.

Rob, if you're good with some minor customizing you could try increasing the speed and drag a litlle on these:

That reel looks great. I am looking to make a little drag. I seen some of these drag kits going in 113h with stainless guts. I didnt know it those drags would work in the black reel. I dont think so.

no, the 113H is a much larger gear.
