Loosen that drag!

Some reels last longer than others.


No matter what kind of fishing you do, if you're starting to think about hunting and think you're done fishing for the year, make sure you loosen the drag on your reel if you plan on putting it away until next season.


Doing this will remove stress from the drag washers and make them last longer. In fact, a so-so reel can last years if you use this little trick!

I always try to remember to loosen my drag after every fishing trip--even if I plan to fish the next day. For long-term storage, it's imperative!




Remember to take the hooks outta yer pocket before ya sit down!
