Title: Braided Dacron Line For Tip-Up
Post by: NEW222 on Jan 16, 2022, 06:45 PM
Hi there. Been a while since I last posted, but havent been ice fishing for a few years as my best ice fishing partner, my dad, had had some major health issues that we had not gone out. So this year, I am planning on trying to go ice fishing again. I mainly go for late season pike with tip-ups, and I needed some line for a new tip-up, and to replace on a couple others. My local stores do not carry the line I used to buy and use and now carry smaller spools. So I went on Amazon and picked up the following in 50 lb line. Just wondering what peoples opinions are on this stuff. It arrived today and looks nice anyways. Hoping things go well, and we can try to get out, if only once even just to do it. Thanks.

Hey 222, for whatever reason I just saw your post. How did you make out with the line and fishing this year?

My apologies Fishingig for the late reply. I have unfortunately not gotten out this year due to weather mostly. So I have not had a chance to try out the line, but it does appear very nice and am now ready for next year for sure.

Don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. Give it a try and see how it works out.  :tipup:
