Default Re: Ice rod set up???

peel off whatever u have on and leave a solid covering of the old line and then do a uni2uni or a good braid/mono knot and spool up all the ice line. Then take the tiniest swivel u can find (i like spro) and throw on 6-8# floro about 2 feet long. the little swivels go right thru the guides. On my light rod I have 4# floro all the way including leader, I like Pline. On my medlite setup I have 8# fireline ice and a 8# floro leader. havent used PP ice but any of the braids are good as long as they are ice braid, they fuse the line so it doesnt absorb water.
