    4-6# P-line. Super strong and disappears in the water. It also has no memory

    I really like stren for most of my ice fishing applications. I use 2# for panfish. I would probably use 6 for walleyes.

    I use P-Line in either 4 or 6lb pretty much where ever I fish unless I am after gills. Then I use the Triple Fish 2 lb.

    I like the fireline but my fat little fingers have a hard time tieing knots.

    So P-Line is the line for me!

    I am suprised there are guys that actually use fireline on the ice. Man is that stuff tough to deal with, holds water, freezes up. Go with a Flourocarbon and you will be very happy and will catch more fish

    On rattle reels we use 8lb vanish and rods we use 6lb vanish. I have really come to like this line for all around use in the winter. Also it comes in bigger spools, between all of us we pick up a 5000 yard spool and that is enuff to do 15 rods and 15-18 rattle reels with some to spare for tip ups and string weeds..

    P Line CX Premium is a nice line I tried it last season and I am sticking with it for this year.

    Scott, when your are sitting inside your house and it is 85 and sunny, Fireline works great. Now outside and -30 that is a different story.
