If a powerful fish starts ripping line off your reel, the decreasing diameter of the line left on the spool can actually increase drag tension. You may need to back off the drag. The convenient location of the Suveran and CD Series Center drag makes this adjustment simple and easy.
Spinning reels allow you to use a wide variety of lines. For example, extra light or small diameter lines can be used for clear water fishing or finesse fishing situations. When casting, use your index finger to "feather" or even stop the line for pinpoint accuracy.
For superior casting distance, eliminate line twist. It's usually caused by loading new line improperly or by turning the reel handle while a fish is taking line from the drag.
To remove line twist on the water, simply let your line flow behind the boat or in the current. Reel in the line and you're ready for trouble-free casting. After a fishing trip or before storing your reel for an extended period of time, be sure to back off the star wheel.
This relieves pressure on the drag washers and helps extend the life of your drag system. While most right-handed anglers use a right-handed baitcast reel, some prefer a left-handed reel.
