I know the Magda does on all 4 that I have for emergency use if something would happen to my Tekotas or Coldwater Reels but they are older and there has been improvements made to them since I purchased them over 10 years ago. The Convector was fine on all 6 that I had and sold, I have been using 2 Coldwater reels and have had no issues with them either. The drags on both the Coldwater and the Convector Reels works as expected, I think the Coldwater drag is a little more smooth than my Convectors were.

I will say this about the Coldwater reels they are more user friendly than my Tekotas for the simple reason that they have the power handle on them which the Tekotas do not. It is my intentions to purchase the power handles for the Tekotas from Tuna Tom in the near future.
