I prefer to use a lever drag reel and use just enough drag to keep the clicker from sounding. That will allow it to make some noise when you get fouled with some kelp or grass.

Sometimes I use a star drag Diawa Sealine and put it in gear and then adjust the drag just hard enough for no clickers. More experienced fisherman have told me to set the drag properly and don't touch it on the water but I've always had a problem taking advice.

You really do need a minimum 1lb ball, otherwise it won't stay on the bottom even at a slow troll.
