Title: Re: big fish and braid

One last thought to those of you who might be fishing heavy braid. When you get hung the inclination is to lock your drag down to pull free. All well and good if you don't overdue it.

But remember to loosen your drag again. An easy mistake to make especially when your tired. At best it may cause you to bust off a fish at worst Mr. Big could pull you a bit harder than you are prepared to accept.
