Ice rods for Lake Trout?

[MikeHall]

Did someone say you need a heavy rod & line? I use 2 & 4 pound test on a light medium HT 36 inch rod with small lures.. Biggest to date 42 pounds and I get my fair share on fish over 20 pounds.. Every winter at Flaming Gorge.. Not saying this is the answer for every but it is the key to making fishing a combo of skill & fun
