Max drag is double on the SG so you could use it for bigger offshore stuff where you might need 28# but I have a saltiga(42#) for jigging monsters and never fish heavy line with either of the smaller reels.

monstah,

thats good info. i've been looking at release/truth and i was hoping someone here would compare them to avet. i love my avet but i'm always looking other good stuff made in the usa.
