Baitcast Reels for Ice Fishing
#13
[quote TubeDude][#ff0000]"The only line twist you will get will be from spinning lures or fish that spin as they fight, like bluegills."

[#0000ff]WRONG. The line twist develops when your spinning reel keeps turning with no line coming in...as when you are fighting a larger fish...whether it spins or not.

Revolving spool reels...like baitcasters...bring the line onto the reel straight...with no line twist.

NOT WRONG[:p] I was referring to the use of baitcasters in my line twist comment... that you only get line twist when you use spinning lures (i.e. spinners, spoons) or have a fish (like a bluegill) spin around like crazy. I must not have been clear enough in my sentence structure. I'm well aware of spinning reel twists. I have a Sadistic sense of pleasure watching and hearing folks madly crank against a pealing spinning reel drag knowing the potential mess they are creating.
