carll2 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 i really like power pro and suffix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJL Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I primarily fish outside of a hut. For lakers, I use 8lb Berkley Trilene XL. My UL panfish reel is spooled up with 4lb Berkley Micro ice. If I was inside a hut, I'd be more inclined to use braid or a superline of some sort.

asdve23rveavwa Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Used the P Line Ice for the first time last year and loved it. The 5 lb was perfect up at Nipissing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dheitzner Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I've had good luck withBerkley Micro Ice as well (4 to 8lb test depending what rod it's on)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 If it's cold enough, they all ice up. Tuf-Line Duracast freezes up the least from my experience. Yep, Duracast is all I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leecher Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I like to use Power Pro Ice as my main line tied to a barrel swivel, tied to Trilene Cold Weather mono leader.... this for my jigging rods... for my dead sticks, dacron seemed to be the best durable wise IMO As for freezing / ice up, not much you can do about it... no matter type of line used, when it's cold, it will ice up or freeze.

castgame Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 how does fluoro fare on the ice? i remember having some trouble with breakage on a cold day steelheading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adempsey Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I like all the superlines. However, I've never had one that didn't freeze up. I've tried line conditioner as well, didn't seem to help much. I always manage though. Maybe I'll try the Tuf-Line as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
