This will be my first trip up to LOW and was wondering what type and pound test line everyone likes to use up there? <P>[This message has been edited by Iceman12 (edited 12-05-2003).]<p>[This message has been edited by Iceman12 (edited 12-05-2003).]

IceMan: I personally use 8# on my jiggin rod and dead stick as well. There are as many theories on line as there are on lures. I have used Stren low Viz for years and it has worked fine for me. Good luck and hang on. Bill

90%+ of my winter fishing up here I use 6 and 8 pound mono, tried and true Trilene XL.<P>fiskyknut

8# fireline with mono shocker for jigging and 8# or 6# Trilene XT or XL and sometimes 6# Vanish on deadstick.

I use 1lb diameter 8lb test power pro for jigging, very sensitive and no stretch so setting the drag is important. Dead stick 6lb ice mono one that can vanish, on my dead stick I put a small spinner an beads with a bobber stop 6-8 inches abouve a #6 circle hook, a good stong minnow dance'n around gives the spinner an beads enough motion to peek the fishes curiosity, then the minnow and gulpy gulpy yumm yumm, wammo! cross his eyes.

      Made a quick trip before the weekend rush on Vermilion.  Ice was in very good condition.  Didn't see any slush or water on any of the roads out from McKinley Park.  There are plowed roads on both side of the staked snowmobile trail coming out from the landing.  The road to the left goes out toward Birch Island, and there is a spur road going to the left (west) a couple hundred yards out.  The road on the right side goes out toward Ely Island.  There is a short spur road going east about half mile out.   The water came up under my fish house about another 1½ inches when I drilled my holes.  Looks like I will be going back up early next week to block my house up higher.  The small amount of new snow is really drifting up and adding weight.  You may get water on the ice, or find slush if you drill holes in new areas.  There is about 15% bare ice where the wind has blown it off.  Many of the drifts are very high and hard, so you could get stuck on them.   Fishing was average.  Best bites were from 9-10am and 11-1230 when I quit.  Biggest walleyes was only 16¼", then the next biggest was 13.75".  Reporting lengths in quarter inches because I can't seem to find any big walleyes.   Good luck fishing, be careful driving around, and be courteous to others.
