CriscoHow to prolong the Line Freeze on these cold fall and winter days?

Here’s a tip for you that is cheap and it will keep the ice out of your guides and off your fly line longer.

CRISCO SHORTENING.  I’ve tried Mucilin, gink, WD-40, No stick grill sprays, etc,  but shortening seems to work the very best.  Rub it on your fly line and smear it in your guides.  It goes on like a paste and seems to shed the water very well, thus keeping the ice off your line and your guides.  If that stops working go get warm!
