I've been hitting it hard this late season, with plenty of experience with serious icing of rods, line and everything else. I fish a number of Garcia Abus: C3s, C4's and modified 6500ABs (I stripped out the AB crap and added thumbars). Here's my observation....

Reels with thumbbars ALWAYS freeze up to useless well before reels with the old fashioned buttons. At least that's been my experience. Same with you?
