I have had the same situation with an 8', 200lb shark on 25lb test. I was able to overcome the drag by roatating thumbs on the spool and fanning the drag. The beast finally wore out after about 45 minutes. When I got it to color, it finally got a second wind and broke me off into the piling on the pier.[pirate]
