[QUOTE="WTM, post: 5342960, member: 6230"] probably because they didnt know or didnt set the drag correctly to begin with, or dont know or dont have their reels serviced. if folks are denting or getting flat spots in drag washers then something is causing it. the only thing that might happen, is the tension spring washers might flatten out on cheaper reels. i get a chuckle out of youtube on the technical stuff. seems like everyone has a marine shop now. there is this one video on "dedicated power" and the guy goes on about how much amps and power these fish finders use and explained the firehose/water hose analogy. he recommended #8 or #10 marine conductor, which is fine depending on length and desired voltage drop. but one commentor asked: so im confused, if these pull so much power and amps why do they have these skinny 16 or 18 gauge wires connected to their units?
