Ice Rod Tip Strike Indicators

[fishnate]

I've used them before and I personally can't stand them. I've watched a number of YouTube videos where people are using them and I can see the rod tip move at the same time as the spring bobber in almost every case. For me they limit my presentation options too much. As far as the one tap problem, I don't believe a spring bobber will help much if your rod is too heavy of an action unless you are ready to set the hook to begin with. I prefer a rod with a light tip and some backbone to begin with so the fish can inhale the lure/bait with little resistance but I can still set the hook.

I know there are many who will disagree but it really boils down to personal preference. Try one it might work wonders for your style of fishing.
