Check out Stanley's Ice-Off Paste (http://www.loonoutdoors.com/gotohaves.html) I'm sure Byard could get it for you...   To be honest, when it's single digits, even with ice-off, your window of decent fishing is pretty narrow - usually in the "warmth" of the afternoon, which in Michigan means betwen noon and 4pm.  You get out, fish, keep the line moving through the guide, and once it starts freezing, you're pretty much done too...   The fun part that I haven't figured out is how to keep the balls of ice off your felt soles that turn you into Frankenstein from the river to the car...I don't know if the swappable soles will fix that problem or not...     Ed Roden [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.questquality.com Living would be easier if men showed as much patience at home as they do when they're fishing. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Dr. Doug Miller Sent: Sunday, February 09, 2003 9:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [VFB] Fishing report Okay, I popped off too quickly. If you fish in sigle digit weather, how in the world do you keep your guides free of ice?
