Hi Team.
Want to use my ABUs for bottom bashing. Both have had the drag upgrades.
What max braking strain should I use in braid for bottom bashing - beofre I start to burn out these reels..?

ask whoever did the drag upgrade. I would be surprised if you could get more than 5-6 kg drag from the ABU7000. You could still run 50lb braid if you wanted to, and use your thumb when required.

Apathy is the enemy
If they are anything like my older ABU's I would be worried about the anti reverse pawl if using heavy drag settings and braid
