Penn Spin Reel will not lock after casting
We have a 4500SS Penn Spin reel that will not lock after casting. The bale functions properly and clamps into the "locked" postion after casting but the reel continues to free spinv f you do not hold tension on the line. Where is the reel locking mechanism located and how do you adjust it?

On the front of the spool there is a device to turn to set the drag. Torn it tighter and tighten it until slightly below the breaking point of your fishing line. It isn't a critical adjustment, it just keeps your line from breaking while trying to land a fish.
