Put the reel on the OTI rod....tied the line to a scale and pulled.

Agree 100% about drags.......24lbs doesn't sound like much, but 24lbs off the tip of the rod is quite a bit.

also, just because i could hold onto a spinner with 35lbs of drag doesn't mean i have any desire to. i'd like to fish to put up a fight, as opposed to just winch it in.
