Try putting hlaf oz weight even if it falls down see if it slows down the fall. If it doesnt I think there is something wrong with the tensioner....this knob is to control how fast line comes off when reel is in freespool...like someone mentioned if you tighten down enough it will break. When you first learn how to cast this is a must to slow down the rotation of the spool. Less rotations less chance of bird nest. When you get better you can back off on the tensioner....more rotation the farther you are gonna cast.
