Use Lux Liquid dish soap (or any other dish detergent of your choice) and rub liberally on skin.
Flies avoid you, washes right off, does not mar or eat into the seats as other fly repellant chemicals do. Also "hides" the human scent from lures. May be applied more than once if some gets washed off during a day of fishing.
Fill the aluminum handle of your landing net with Styrofoam packing peanuts and you'll never watch another landing net sink to the bottom when accidentally dropping it in the water.
When setting out tipups during the icefishing season place a small bobber at the waters surface. During sub-zero temps this will give you a quick reference for resetting the tipup. It also gives you a visual aid to see if the fish has taken line from the spool during the strike.
When in a pinch for a line dressing during a flyfishing trip you can always use some ordinary chapstick. Apply it to your line or work it between your fingers and a dry fly. Your fly will now float perfectly on top of the water.
Before spooling the new line onto your spool you might want to get rid of the memory it has retained. By running your line under some warm water you will find the line becomes more flexible and will spool onto your reel with fewer tangles.
Weeds In Winter: Open water fishermen hate the weeds that trap their lures. But when surfaces harden, and the only visible weeds are brown cattails jutting out from a frozen shoreline, healthy greens deserve some respect. Now is the time to use vegetation to your advantage. Most underwater weeds die-off during late fall and early winter, leaving vast areas of desert-like bottoms. At this time, if you can locate healthy weeds, fish are likely present. Thick beds of milfoil, cabbage and coontail typically hold fish. Start by locating the deepest living weeds in the area. And if active fish are not found, continue moving shallower. Microscopic organisms, bait fish, crayfish, and wealth of other edible critters inhabit weed beds all winter long. In short, cherish weeds in the wintertime.
