I'll be fishing from my boat. Trolling and bait fishing off Gloucester, Ma.
I have a 7' medium - heavy Tiger Ugly stick. I've been looking into buying a new reel and am wondering what you guys think of lever drags.
I'm considering either the Penn GT 330 or the 330 LD. I've never used a lever drag. Actually haven't done much of any fishing in quite a while and am just trying to get back into it. I have an old Penn Spinning reel and an old Penn Long Beach reel. they held up well so I figured I'd stick with Penn, but if you think something else would be better (in the same price range), I'm open to suggestions

Thanks!
John
