You won't have any trouble with fleas on Canadice er Hemlock. They may be there but not heavy like the bigger lakes. Never had a problem with any build up. no walleyes in Canadice,in Hemlock giants lerk but not in big numbers.
Man I would buy 1 spool of 1000feet of the mason 7 strand for pulling dipseys, thats enough for 2 rods on the smaller lakes!!
No stretch it cuts deeper faster , I've cought several lakers and browns on the wire dipsey rigs in the 2 lakes.
The braid may be cheaper but I have a wire dipsey rig that boated 3 kings in the fall tournament in 2006 and still working fine.
