Hello Steve,

No I am 100% sure it is not the line that slip on the spool, I take a lopt
of care about his, that is true that is can slip easilly. My problem is
really the brake ! :-)

Yes I do that bur braided lines are quite sliding, I am not sure it is
enought to permit a suffisant hook setting. The half second necessary to
do
that is also important, the ones that had tarpon strikes will understand
!
:-))

Phil, the problem might not be with your drag, but with the way you put
the
line on the reel. Braided lines are VERY slick and slippery. In the
early
days, when I first started using braides, I thought I had a screwed up
reel
because I couldn't get a decent hookset and the fish were pulling line off
the reel quite easily.

Then, one day I noticed that the line was going off the spool with a fish,
but the spool wasn't turning! Once I got the fish landed, I let all the
line off the reel and put a piece of electrical tape over the line to
secure
it to the spool. I respooled the line and voila', "drag" problem solved.

Are you 100% certain this isn't your problem?
