Hi All,
I have a pair of Tyrnos 10IIs' that I would like to use for Juvenile Black Marlin to around 50kg on 6kg mono. The drags have been replaced with a couple of cut down Carbontex originally cut for TLD 15s'. They worked out great and are more than smooth enough for light line with negligable start up intertia. The area I run into problems is when it comes to the drag cam setup. When set up for 2kg (4.4lb) at strike the cam delivers 5.5kg (12.1lb) at sunset. Now don't get me wrong I don't use sunset much but on light line there are times when it is needed to break a stalemate on a stubborn fish or when the windon is on the reel near the boat.
So, with this in mind I am aware that there is a "Sailfish Special" drag cam option presumably for use with mono for the Tyrnos 12 & 16 size reels but will it fit the 10?
Cheers,
John.
