New Drags: TOR 16

I had Wes from Ken's Custom R&R hot-rod my drags at the FH show.
They do the work while you wait..... Brand new custom drag plate and washers....
You know how much drag I have now??????

It's a whopping 32lbs.... I could not believe, so I tested it three separate times. All 3 tests where on warm drags....
Dang.... I'm afraid I may break something on the reel with that much pressure... $$$ well spent...

Thank you very much, Ken & Wes.....

Wes doesn't know how to do much but check baseball scores on his computer, but he says thanks for the post. yeah it costs $30, but they put it back together right, or take your chances on your own. Fishstalker had another "reel repairman" do his reels and they were put together wrong. This is why Ken doesn't sell his drags as kits, if there are people who swear up and down they can do their Penn draggs and still don't now the difference between earred and keyed then they probably won't figure out why the little click dissapeared on their star and they'll blame the drags.
P.S. If you still wonder why the click is gone it was that little thing that flew past you and is now on ther floor.
