Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with any of the inline ice fishing reels. I've been researching some of the 13fishing brand models, but was hoping to get some feedback from people who have already tried them

They are great for still/finesse presentations , and great for combating line twist.

I use them when I’m fishing small tungsten jigs or wire worms.

I have Frabill 261’s, Rapala Concept and 13 Fishing Freefalls, Ghost and Black Betty. Far prefer the 13 Fishing inline for no other reason than the trigger. As for the Ghost vs Black Betty, either or works for me.

Agree with what dweb started previously as well. Line twist is greatly if not totally reduced. Use mine fishing light line with small presentations mostly and would never go back to a spinning reel for that situation.
