The testing lab is closing again
 
Hey, guess what, water freezes on the power pro line when the temp is twenty degrees. Just went down to the river to test a new swimmer I am working on. Made a few casts and the line started binding up. It was loaded with ice in no time. Got a good idea of how the new weighting setup works though before I was forced to stop.

Reminds me of trying to fly-fish in freezing weather -- so annoying to clear the ice from the tip-tip and snake guides.

Do you have a pic' of the new swimmer, Swimmer?

Hope to see it as it is (in progress).
