randerson Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 So whats everyones goto I typically fish panfish and crappies and walleyes in the winter so I set most of my rods up with 3# mono for panfish and 4# for walleyes I have tried braid in the winter but generally end up with mono. Trilene Ice is my goto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan z Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 While hole hoping I like 3# floro because it doesn't absorb water like braid. In the house I use 3# braid because it doesn't stretch and has plenty of strength for those pesky pike and walleyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I run Berkley Micro Ice on my rods in the solar color for everything. 2LBS for bluegill & crappies, 4LBS for walleye, 6LBS for channel catfish, & 8LBS for northerns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farley Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I have a few differnt combos set up with different line weights. I usually have one rod with 3lb mono, 1 with 4lb mono that I use for panfish, then my walleye deadstick is usually 8-10 lb mono and my walleye jigging is 20 lb flourocarbon.Sometimes I'll spool up with 2lb mono on the panfish rods but find its a pain to tie knots with. i'm not that delicate.

Scott O. Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I use Northland Bionic Ice Line, either 3# or 4#, in most of the my panfish/trout applications. It remains pretty soft and easy for knot-tying, but has the strength to hold up against bigger fish. If I'm after 'eyes, I prefer Berkley Fireline Ice in 6#. Hard to beat for toughness.

FisH_SLaYer24 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I love me some PLine FlouroIce in the 3# for panfish and 5# for walleyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creek Kid Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 My panfish rigs have Berkley or Trilene Ice 4#. My walleye rigs I leave my fire line (luv that stuff!) and just put on a 4-6# Vanish leader about 6' long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Peterson Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I'll run with Northland Bionic #3 or #4 for panfish. And for walleyes 6lb Bionic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Batiuk Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I like the feel of Power Pro micro ice braid. I then do a loop to loop with flouro carbon. I like the Bionic from Northland. It lays nice and limp on the reel and gives great sensitivity. This combination gives you the best of both worlds by allowing a no stretch line and then an invisible leader to increase your percentages for those finicky bites.
