Title: TLD 15 Help needed
Post by: MVAngler on April 13, 2013, 05:05:31 PM
I have 4 TLD 15 s that I use for inshore trolling. I have upgraded the drags to carbontex. My problem is that the drag jumps from about 5 lbs at strike to about 15 when I push it to max on two of the four reels. The other two do what I'd expect and move up to 8 or 9lbs. I believe I have the spring washers set correctly (). Is there anything else that may cause the steep drag range?

Thanks to Allen and all the other contributors here. This site has is such a great source of information.
