I generally do not post anything through out the summer, only during the ice fishing season, so it must be a sign. I won a couple of hundred dollars during the Archery 3-d league season and I have been hanging onto to it until I decided what to spend it on. I have settled on a new ice fishing reel. 2 of them actually. One for me and one for my wife. My question for those of you in the know, What is your opinion of an inline reel? I have read some good things about them so I thought I'd give one a try. Eagle Claw makes a highly rated, inexpensive one. 4.5 out of 5 star's that won't break the bank to buy and should it end up down the hole because of in-attention, it won't make me cry. Pro's and Con's.
I've had a lot to say on this topic and found the reel for ice fishing that I like above all else. Hint: It's not an ice fishing reel and I like it much better. Here are the links where I posted on it and there is further discussion from others on ice fishing reels:
