52#FLATHEAD Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I made a couple rattle reels that one revolution equals 1' of line. I got bored & had to build some. What fish are these used for? I am wondering what kind & how much line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordyn Kaufer Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 mostly walleye and pike when fishing in a sleeper... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawnny B Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 What ever fish your going for at night while sleeping, or during the day and not "paying" attention to the other hole, like when your busy watching the TV and the "fishing show" thats goin on below the ice. Most people use them for Walleye's but have seen people use them for Crappie, northern, ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2h Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Nothing better than the sound of a rattle reel buzzing away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyebjim Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 A rattle reel is the only alarm clock that will effectively wake me up instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
