Hi kian, Maybe you should send your reel to have it checked. You dont want to burst your line if you happen to hook up that big big thing in your favourite fish hole. I could check for you too. Normally, for a lousy drag, there are many reasons. 1) Water in the drag. 2) Drag grease expired. 3) Drag disc has not enough drag grease. 4) Drag disc 'u/s'. (unserviceable) 5) Drag disc placed upside down (applicable to some drag material) etc...

Drag smooth is enough liao. We can always use our thumb to stop or feather the run for big fish. To lock a drag using the drag system, you will be putting potential danger to your reel. Normally, for a new reel, there is always excess grease in it. Exccess is good in this sense as it helps to prevent corrosion too. You dont want to buy a reel that has dried up grease too. To modify the drag, you know where to go. 2000Tackle! Did you check out the new Daiwa spinning reel, Caldia KIX? Super smooth, a super reel with reasonable price tag for lure fishing. I am tempted... ;D
