I can just see it now. Gee Honey the steaks seem a little tough and stringy tonight, which bag did you get them from.

Seriously though that sounds like a really good idea.

I have over $500 invested in lines and anything that will make them last longer is a bonus. Plus the long drive to the fish in would thaw them out.

ive already got to much stuff in their. my mom would probably throw them away. but it sounds like a good idea. i wouldnt freeze a extra spool will line i hardly use. it might be a good idea for me if i get a line i dont plan on using for a while to throw it in their untill i get ready to use it.

Excellent post. Thanks for the info.

i would be afraid of freezer burn, as the freezer is quite a dry place. that could cause an unexpected sideaffect.

just a thought

I never have a problem leaving my lines in the car even during our 100+ degree Texas summers because there is always so much slime and dirt and muck and schmutz on my lines that the lubricants couldn't leech out even if they wanted to.
I'll bet that's not too good for the lines either, huh?

Let's hear it for extended winter fly fishing!!!!!

Suppose that freezing you AND the fly line, will extend the life of BOTH??

We look forward to a report on your week of fishing in South Dakota in January.

Freeze yourself and your line ...



Not only do I fish SD and So MO in the freezing cold, I fish Wyoming, too!
