I seized the drag up on a 7' porbeagle first time out with this reel. I've been using it for stripers from the boat, but it only has two drag settings now, full stop and very tight. I want a good durable set of drag washers for this reel, is there are pre-made set I can order for this particular model or do I have to cut my own?

I had to special cut the under spool drag washers that last time I worked on a Fin-Nor. The one in the spool were from Penn's HT-100 size that I could find that fit.
