Just wondering if there are any other cold water fisherman out there. . I fish for steelhead in tribs. to Lake Erie from nov-march. . a lil cold snap here shut me down, just as prime river conditions began to develop, a nice green flow , lots of chrome manistees are gonna be frozen in this time... even when the river freezes shut there are a few locations that remain open in the coldest of weather but with lows in the single digits the ice build-up on the rod is to much. usually a lil chapstick keeps the rod guides from freezing up, but not when its this cold... . the best thing for me to do is sit at home and tie a few flies, or find something to fix on the truck. . any other chrome addicts out there?
