Need some input

pros is the weight, line retreive is good, large handles helps with quicker response. size is close to a fly reel.

cons is loose lines can get cught up on the handles.

Hey 20 I have an Eagle Ice reel. It's good for spider rigging where the reel seat is in the middle of the handle but not good for on a bottom seat rod to use for dipping in brush or around trees. The large handles seems to be in the way and tangle the line you hold in your left hand.

The handles do look like overkill. I'm looking for a reel for winter deep water fishing. WM solos aren't really made for this, spin cast twist the line when I pull line off the reel so I'm looking for something new

on these type of reels they are not like a fly reel. the line actually is tighter to the rod (on mine). so you will not have allot of slack as you would on others. Also as stated you can hold the line in other hand. I vertical fish as deep as 30' with mine.

I found a great deal on a pair of Eagle Claw inline reels. I am currently waiting on the mailman to drop them off at house. I got a pair of 12ft jigging poles to try them on.
