I fish at gulf and about to get me a reel since I am sick of using old reels on fishing trips. I hear different suggestions on "how much drag I would need" to catch grouper, Aj or red snappers. I am seriously interested in Shimano SRG18000F which max drag is 44lb. Do I need to look into Fin Nor for more drag or should I stick to Shimano? I got my hands on to compare and Shimano seems much smoother. SOme say I ned about 60 lb of drag on my reel to be able to get larger groupers from the bottom. I am open to any suggestions. thank you.
