Tried one last year. Had a hard time with the drag setting, mine was really finicky, also wound the line under the spool a few times during the heat of the battle. Maybe I will have to get it out again and have more patience with it.

Today I landed a pike like eyeguy posted earlier, but it was to windy for pictures. It was released to eat little fish. The reel did great.

Funny Moose ... I had caught a bonus Walleye out of this spot and yesterday I had a good heavy fish on (in Line) and thought for sure it was a nice Walleye .... NOPE - 15" Large mouth!   Blue small Forage Minnow.  took me a couple seconds to realize, as I looked it for a second, thinking ...this is a funny lookin Walleye!!   Of coarse released it!!   Really tricked me .. thought for sure it was Walter!   A very nice Pike did get my Blue Forage Minnow:angry:

So I tried the reel last weekend and it worked pretty good! For the money it's not bad at all. I did pick up a 27 inch noodle rod. I Havent tried it yet but seems like it should work good. I have a frabil 2 rod hard case and realized inline reels don't fit! Fly reels do. Does anyone have any tricks to putting inlines in a hard side case? I do have a big multi pocket rod case I use most of the time but like the frabil case when I just need a handful of rods.

I found one on Amazon smile that I am going to order.  looks like they would fit ok with the 5 inch height.  can ship it back for free if I dont like it. Hopefully will be fine for 3 or 4 setups.

      What a difference a day makes.  Fishing was very slow today.  Biggest I caught was only 13 inches.  Marked a lot of fish but couldn't get very many to bite.   The wind was very strong today and did cause a little bit of drifting, but travel is still good on the latke.  Just avoid the snow banks and drifts.  Saw one house get pulled off the lake, and didn't see any new houses come out before I left the lake at 4pm.  Lots of snowmobiles and trailers in Tower.  At least the city and lake will be busy with those.   Good luck fishing if you go out the last weekend of the winter season.

      Ice condition didn't change much in the last week as shown in the McKinley Park photo from today.  The holes in my house froze all the way down in the last six days; 40 inches of ice now.  I drilled my two holes 24 inches and cleared the shavings out before reaching water.  Much cleaner way in a permanent house.   Fishing was pretty good today.  Caught two 24" walleyes, including the 5#-7oz fatty pictured.  Also caught a 19 incher.  Best bite was from 11 to noon.  Much better action with chubs than shiners today.  Never tried the pike suckers I had.   Good luck fishing the last weekend this winter.  Going to be very windy Friday, but drifting shouldn't b a problem since there is no loose snow on the lake.  Saturday and Sunday look to be very warm.  Still about 35 houses left out from McKinley Park.

      Too bad she’s after big game when she leaves home.  Your one eyed trouser trout might not lure her in. 😉
