hi again m8 , right see the handle , right behind it is a five star drag , if you push it to it tight it shouldnt slip no more .
best of luck

just remember to slacken it off again when you are finished or you will shag your drag washers |

enough to stop it slipping during the retrieve.
Pump the rod and reel down and you should be OK |
