Worst time hooking yourself
just yesterday i went to set the hook on a fish when my line was very close to the shore and the fish hadnt swallowed the hook yet, the hook came flying out and hit about 1 cm below my sunglasses directly below my right eye. i wasnt sure how to pull it out since ive never hooked myself so i ripped and then it hurt horrible bad. still hurts now.

Stupid Newb Question about setting drag
i would say set the drag loose enough to where it is semi hard to medium hard to pull line out by hand, but not any where near imposible to pull the line. basicaly if a 2 lb bass took it then he could pull some line out but not to much.
