Line freeze
 
What if anything can be done about line and eyes freezing up?

I wrap no- freeze electric cord around them and them plug the cord into my Honda Generator. Which I can put on my boat or carry in a load tray on the front of my beach buggy.

If your using braid switch to mono because braid freezes first.

The only winter fishing I do is ice fishing and flyfishing for trout. I have found when flyfishing it makes a big difference to have a clean and dressed flyline. They sell a paste like substance made by loon outdoors just for this problem, but I just but some chapstick and wipe it on all my guides.

[I],ve been a steady /braid guy. but I also bring a mono setup . well I,ve been too confortable bring two briad setups ups . we,ll last night it cost me ,,time & fishing wise . I got a wind knot .which usually is no big deal , except last nite with the cold & snow It froze & there is no way I could mess with a frozen windnot , So in my truck is my mono backup .where it should have been ..:hs:

Instead of buying that expensive stuff from Loon just go to your auto parts store and buy a small container of the stuff you spray on your tires to make them shiny or your dashboard to make it look new. Its the same stuff for a lot less.
