What do people who fish in the winter do about
the guides icing up?
Is there any solution?


The deicing "solution" is called "antifreeze"

At least that's what they sell it in stores for :-)


Thanks but if you are serious...


Of course I was not serious

I was making a funny, you asked for a "deicing solution" ( a liquid
chemical combination, that prevents freezing ) The number one "solution"
made and sold for that, is antifreeze :-)

Since I don't ice fish down south, I really have never approached this
problem, I would try to keep water from sticking to the rod eyes,
perhaps spraying them with WD-40, or Reel Magic, might help, but I
really don't have a clue if it would work


OK thanks anyway.
I was hoping some steelhead or ice fisherman might offer a clue.
