Scorpion drag
Scorpion 1001 reel. I have to tighten the drag almost with a pair of pliers to keep it tight. What do I need to fix this problem. Thanks......Rich
Re: Scorpion drag
IT sounds like the drag spring washers are on wrong. pull the handle and star drag and check to ensure they are on right.

Re: Scorpion drag
The spring washers (technically called Belleville washers) should be installed like this....().....you may have them installed like this ...(( or... ))
Re: Scorpion drag
Either that or you have oil/water on the drag washers themselves.
I'd also recommend going here: www.smoothdrag.com/index.html
I'd send them an email or just call them and see if they have carbontex drag washers for your reel.
