"data": {
"note": "Set the drag to about 25–33 % of the line's breaking strength — measured at the reel with a scale, with line off the rod tip, not at the spool. That lets a fish run before anything snaps while still tiring it. Braid can take the higher end; a stretchy mono or a fragile knot, the lower. Back off the drag when a big fish is close to the boat.",
