Spinning Drag vs. Casting Drag

Featured Replies

I was looking around on the Shimano website and I got to looking at the drag ratings for all the reels.  It seemed like the spinneing reels on average have a higher drag ratings, kind of suprised me.  The Citica 200D has a drag rating of 10 lbs where as the Stradic 2500 (to me is comparable to the Citica in spinning) has a drag rating of 12 lbs and the 4000 and 5000 have a rating of 18 lbs.  Is this usually the case?

Generally speaking you will find higher drag ratings on spinning reels.
