Hi Alan,

I have an issue with my son's Abu Garcia® SILVER MAX Series, whenever i try to lock down the drag, it still gives line when i am trying to pull it out.
Let say about 4lbs of weight and it will give line, is this normal or there is something wrong with the drag washers

Thanks!

first guess is spectra slipping on the spool.........
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

Possibly you are missing a washer or two in the stack so you are bottoming out.

By the way, ABU GARCIA REVO SX High Speed 7.1 RH Cast Reel is on sale at http://www.americanlegacyfishing.com/sale-50-off-abu-garcia-revo-sx-hs-7-1-rh-cast-reel.html for $100
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D
