I was at meijers the day before newyears, and I was looking at their ice fishing stuff, (not much available this year.) any way, I had some time to kill so I looked further down the isles.
I came across a bottol of reel lube. twice the size of a bottol of gun oil. with a neadle applicator.
insted of it being a grease as one would expect, it was similar in color to gun oil and smelled similar to gun oil as well.
It is called Lightning Reel Lube sells for about 8 bucks. I was wondering if any one has used it, or is it someting new on the market? I did not buy any because I am using gun oil on mine now. and mine works just like the reel bottol says, fast as lighting. I cleaned all the old lube out of the reel and now I can use it in the cold again. not that I am going to use it on the ice, but I do plan on being on the river come trout season. some years I have had to build a fire opening night to thaw out the worms to get them on the hook. (no exaguration here)
