you always have the ability to pull the drag back and push the button and almost dbl your drag.... that is what the strike is for plus anyone on your boat can figure out real quick how to use the reels..
The drag should be set at strike. As already said, it can be easily set by anyone on the boat.
Another very valuable tip...IF you see the clip pop...Crank like you never cranked before until the line comes tight. Thank Box for that tip.
Big Jay, The pic you mentioned would be a very nice replacement for your avatar...
And it's head first, not dead first; but I knew what you meant.
Vinnie and Mike- you guys are exasperating. There is no reason you do not have each other on the ignore list.

more important than talking about "strike" or other is what poundage you adjust you reel to on strike, for pure tuna trolling we've set teh strike position to 16 pounds, different reels but inshore i generally set strike to about 3 pounds
