Does anyone have any tips on how to keep the guides on the rod from icing up? This is a pain in the ass on a cold morning. Thanks in advance..

Spray your guides with PAM or other similar cooking spray at the start of the day ... should fix it up!!

hey make a product called reel magic, its a silicon spray for the line (work great on spinning reels) . spray it down with that works just like the pam but doesnt stike as well which is a great advantage when you wash your stuff after fishing. if they start freezing reapply

Rub a small amount of vasoline on your guides. I lived in Eastern Wa. for the last 16yrs and vasoline kept the guides clear even in 5 degree temps. The small tubes they sell as lip balm fit in your vest so that you always have it with you.

...and for you flyguys, don't use any solvents due to this will ruin your fly line. Just dip your rod into the water every 5 minutes or so, it works great for me without putting all that gunk,wd40,etc on my rod. Theres enough "gunk" in the waters already...

Don't forget the "all natural" method….it's called fresh seal fat!! laugh laugh

Ps: it doesn't pollute the water either and it's biodegradable too! laugh
