Relative line tension indicators and related methods particularly for fishing reels where the indicators include a body; a mechanical distance determining arrangement housed in the body, such as an axially translating probe shaft/actuator pin, or an electronic distance determining arrangement such as an optical distance determining integrated circuit; and a mechanical display arrangement, such as an indicator linked to the probe shaft/actuator pin, or an electronic display coupled to the distance determining arrangement. In select embodiments, the indicator is mounted to or integrated with the handle of a fishing reel, which is directly proximate to a line tension adjustment wheel. By determining and indicating the axial position of the adjustment wheel relative to an axially constant reference such as the reel handle, a user can determine where, along the continuum of relative positions, the adjustment wheel is positioned. By correlating this axial position with an actual drag value or level, the user can determine the relative over and under drag state from this reference.
