BPS Extreme baitcaster drag

Featured Replies

I recently bought a BPS Extreme baitcaster/ rod combo.  This is my first baitcaster.  I want to make sure that the drag is working properly.  I get one full turn on the drag handle going from full tight to full loose and I can't turn it anymore.  Is this right? It just seems like I should be able to loosen the drag much looser that it gets.  I am also used to spinning gear so it is probably just my inexperience with baitcasters, but I just wanted to check.

That's as far as mine adjust, not quite 1 full turn.  In reality, I've never needed more than that.  Even on spinning reels, a few clicks either way is all I've ever used.
