Hello Mr Larry how are you doing when do you use low or high on these reels. Now this is my first conventional reel so can you please share some of your knowledge you have about using this reel. I'm in for some heavy pulling and spooled up with some 80 sufix braid. How much strain and pressure can I put on 80lbs braid before it break? thanks again and love the show

Hi G,
If your knots are good and the line is spooled really tight I'd say the odds are higher of you breaking something in your body before your line parts.
Once you get the hang of it you'll fall in love with the 2 speed feature.
I use high speed most of the time, but when you get into a Mexican stand-off or get a big boy directly under the boat where you have poor leverage, you'll want to kick it into low and go into a short stroke mode to gain a few inches with each pump. Avoid the temptation of trying to lift the rod too high.
good luck,
L
