^^^  i think that describes all reels in general no?    you tighten the drag?

I haven't tested with a scale, but my Curado DC feels like the lightest drag of all the reels I own. I haven't had enough of a problem to need to upgrade drag washers, but they should help in theory. I use mine on my bladed jig rod. I don't think I would throw a frog or punch with it.

I use DC reels for techniques where lots of drag is NOT needed, such as crankbaits and things, as they're generally not a super strong drag, but you should be able to find the drag rating for your particular reel online so you can compare it to others. 

 

With that said, if you want the drag tighter, then tighten it. Don't be afraid to crank it up to where you need it.
