Flueger Criteron Loss of Drag

[vudo]

Took the reel apart, gave it a good cleaning and greased the drags washers and oiled all bearings.  The main drag was dried, but the one below the main gear was greased.  Now I have about 1 lb of drag at max setting.  Any suggestions?

can we switch these out to greased carbon fiber?

I think I'll have to go that route.  Didn't see it on smooth website so I'll have to give Dawn a call on Mon.

measure them out first.  i'm certain dawn can match something up.  there is also a list of penn washers that might fit. http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=21.0
