Okuma BTL 815 (may be aka Titus?)

[CJM]

This particular reel went out of production in 2001, according to Okuma and they should know I guess.    I have asked them for the drag specifications as well as a parts diagram, with a negative response on both counts.   They say those records are no longer retained, which I find surprising.

So I am wondering if anyone can tell me what the maximum drag is likely to be.    I suspect that it may be around the 6kg mark?

The attached is all the Okuma could provide, just in case anyone else is wondering about this reel.

 

Cheers

If you don’t find anything, you can always test it yourself using a fish weight measure device or bag weigh device. Like in this video

Good luck finding an answer CJM.

Thanks for that video Chris. I think I'll do that with some of my reels.
