What is maximum drag on a spinning reel?
Max drag is measured when the line is loaded to maximum on the spool. In the actual fight, your line is out of the spool for the depth where the fish is. Your line load is less in diameter. Your spool is harder to be dragged to turn.
Is Max Drag important for fishing reel?
“If you have a rod loaded, doing its part, the reel acts as a line collector,” says Secrest. “The drag helps put more action into the rod and regulates the amount of line coming off the reel. If the angler has experience, he’ll know when to take the drag up and when to back off.”

Is the Shimano Sienna 4000 a good Reel?
Reel is great the only downside that I find is that it’s a 4000 rating with 7lb drag, still use it on the surf but seaweed pulls hard too, perfect for piers, lakes, even rivers. Generally a good reel until the drag breaks. I used this twice a week for about a month before the drag completely broke while landing a fish.
