How hard can you lean into a fish on your gear?

RE: How hard can you lean into a fish on your gear?
Very useful article. As a beginner, I've lost fish due to drag being too tight. Still being a beginner, I'm running a fair bit too loose.

I have noticed from my own experimenting, that a drag setting that allows for a slow slip under constant pressure can still be tight enough to break the line under a sudden jolt.
