Best Ice Fishing Reels: Reviews & Recommendations Best Overall: Shimano Stradic FL (1000 size) Pros No noise or vibration during use Resists freezing up Resists line memory The shallower spool requires less line to fill (excess line not necessary for ice fishing) Power Roller II reduces line twist Cons Metal reel body gets cold, possibly causing chilly hands Expensive for a reel used just a few months per year Key Features 6+1 bearing system Shielded bearings S A-RB prevent failure from ice/sand/debris from entering Super Stopper Anti Reverse roller bearing Cross Carbon Drag provides a wider range of drag settings and liquid smooth operation in cold conditions Ive used several variations of Shimanos legendary Stradic through 30 plus years of ice fishing
