Yo Birdman, place your roe skiens on a piece of newspaper and cover the 1 whole side with borax, let dry for a couple hours then flip the other side and smother it with borax. Let sit for 2 more hours and then ziploc and into the freezer. Before you fish with it, just take it out in the morning, let it thaw out on the drive to the river. 8)

Bigguy, that is a Shimano Metanium XT, like the Shimano Chronarch SF we have here. It's primarily designed for bass, but I use it for coho and steelhead. The line capacity is fairly small, but I get enough 12lb test Maxima Ultragreen on there for the species I am fishing for. Together with my 10.5' Stryker IST 1263F, it makes a very light setup that allows me to flick my float into any water efficiently without getting a sore arm. :)
