I kinda figured as much,
I dont have one, nor was I tempted to perchas one eather, I know form my experiance in fishing in frigid temps is that the colder it is the slower you need to jig.
with the lures I use, that there contraption just would not have worked for me eather. now there are some guys who are useing ice flies,, they might have some luck with that thing-a-ma-bob. I wouldnt bet on it tho'
but with the craftsmanship you discribe, I would have seroius doubts that the rod would hang on to the handle....
I picked up a Blue Ice brand ice rod last year, I never cought as many fish ice fishing with any thing better than I did with this rod. It took me about 2 hours to get the presentation down, but once I did, I was fishing circles around my buddies.
