Default Re: Good Problem to Have - Advice needed

I own Stellas & Ssragosa's , unless you fish day in day out then I would go the Stella route predicated on it's crafymanship over Saragosa.
That being said I've taken all species you've mentioned on a fly rod with reels that develop a out 17#'s direct drag! Never felt the need yo ever use more than 10#'s on big striped maiin!
Sragagosa. Will do the job, but the better built reel is probably the Stella with a proven record .
Fifty lbs of drag on a spinner is a joke, most could not even stand up to half that drag!
What is important is that the drag be smooth under all conditions both my Stellas & Sarrie do this!
Buy one it would be Stellas but the Sarsgosas dam close for a lot less bucks!
You could buy two!
Good luck!
