[QUOTE="bAcKpAiN, post: 186472, member: 169"] I would think it should handle 1/2 oz just fine. Have you taken the spool out to see if there are ajustable pins? Some of those older shimanos had centrifigul brakes. A friend of mine had the opposite problem on an older shimano, it wouldn't loosen enough to cast anything. You might want to check to make sure the cast control knob is actually tightening and not stripped out or the wrong knob. It is a sad but common practice for people to frankinstein pieces in that look good but don't really work. [/QUOTE]
