ABSTRACT:
An improved drag assembly is provided and comprises replaceable cartridge assemblies which can be precalibrated for a range of drag settings. Different cartridge assemblies are provided. The reel has a drag knob assembly which supports a selectively replaceable spring and is latched to the reel housing with the spring bearing on the cartridge assembly. A knob is used to turn the drag knob assembly for advancing or retracting the knob assembly to increase or decrease tension on the spring and to increase or decrease the drag setting for controlling tension on the line. Cartridge assemblies and springs are calibrated and rated and paired with a particular rated test line for use in particular types of fishing. A method of changing cartridge assemblies and springs is included.
