patagonia arbor duffel forestland Black Hole 55L This 55 Review: Patagonia Arbor Duffel 30L

If youre an ice fisherman, few things are more agonizing than the wait for safe ice

With a cork drag, there is a period of ramp up when hell initially only get five pounds of drag, then seven, then ten, because the cork granules compress into the voids under the initial load, then return to their full size [and drag strength]. A solution many manufacturers have hit on is to use both cork and synthetic together

Yet, I dont recommend this type of lure to new musky anglers unless they have a preexisting familiarity with topwater baits

as it is small and packs flat

Let them harden a little in the sun to make sure they stay on the hook
