I set the drag to a tension that felt right, but maybe Lew's reels need just one more positive drag click when you're adjusting them??
I could also just be crazy.
Most LEW's have a max 10lbs of drag I believe. The 13 fishing Concept A has a 22lb max drag

+1 on the Concept A paired with a Duece rod = heaven.

Oh I wanted one ! But I didn't have the cash so a Ducket micro magic it was. They're still 40% off on the website. It's sooo hard not to pull out the credit card !!

Two out of three are on sale, I had to have the saltwater addition.
Perfect for kayak fishing.

I love mine and planning to get a second one soon.

Also, customer service is second to none. After 3 years of service I sent it in and they did a full service for no charge at all. Even changed a bent part that the ice chest slid into while in the bed of my truck.

Academy has the Tournament Laser Speed Spool model for $89 right now. It's 7.1:1 ratio.
Got one for Christmas for $79.
I have it on my spinnerbait/ buzzbait rod. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...8cdc15c5b6.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...71e3d7482e.jpg

Saw a guy in Cajun Tackle yesterday buying a Lew's American Hero reel. Didn't figure it was my place to tell him to check out the Tournament Pro before he paid, but I wanted to. I have mine on my fluke Rod; casts like a damn rocket.

T-Boo, don't knock that American hero, that thing can launch it!!

I hear ya. But I couldn't help but think of how happy that guy would've been with a Tournament Pro! :)

I switched to TP and bb1 prof from shimanos. They have been nothing short of amazing.

24carotgoldcoonass 02-13-2016 02:20 PM
I use them mostly saltwater and they have held up great. Not one problem. I have 4 TP and 2 bb1 prof

T-Boo 02-23-2016 04:57 PM
Lew's Tournament Lazer is on sale again at Academy for $79.99.
It's a 7.1:1 ratio.

Top Dawg 02-23-2016 05:08 PM
Just bought a tournament pro G spool. 8.3:1. Ready to try it out.

T-Boo 02-23-2016 05:46 PM
Heck yeah. I don't have experience with a reel that fast, but I'm curious. If it's a Tournament Pro, it's gotta be good.

Mine is on the way too. I have 2, 13 fishing concept A's in 8.1:1 and they are awesome. When you're flipping it only takes a few cranks to get it back to the boat and you're back in the water again.

I don't know much about em. I traded a friend an old Shimano Core for supposedly the most expensive Lew's they make. I never used it one time. Let me get the model. I would be willing to cut someone a good deal on it.
