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.

My grandfather used bees wax,the chapstick works just as well

To some these pieces of art can be priceless, to me they are worth what you catch with them.

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.
