Description

An extremely effective new tool in the sport of ice fishing that uses the flex of your ice fishing rod to hook fish. The JawJacker adjusts to fit the length of your ice fishing rod and how hard you want to set the hook. The trigger is very sensitive and can sense the lightest bites. Trigger tension is easily adjusted from light to heavy by the turn of a wing nut. The JawJacker will fit all ice rods up to 30 inches and some rods up to 36 inches depending on the flexibility of the rod. The JawJacker is made out of tough ABS plastic and folds down to 3 ¼” x 2 ½” x 16 ½”. You can easily fit 10 or more in a 5 gallon bucket. It comes with 2 rod tip loops. Instructions and tips for use are on the back of the package. The JawJacker is legal in all Canadian Provinces and states now. Minnesota just made it legal. The new Minnesota statute (Subp. 8) says, ” An angler fishing through the ice may take fish with a nonmotorized device that sets the hook using the force of a spring device or the force of a fishing pole that is released from a bent position when a fish takes the hook. An angler fishing through the ice may not use a device capable of automatically reeling or spooling the fishing line or otherwise capable of automatically retrieving a hooked fish. ” We asked for clarification on weather the Jigging JawJacker is legal since it is motorized and Major Scott Staples from the Minnesota DNR enforcement division said that a motorized device can assist in jigging the bait but not reeling the fish in so therefore the Jigging Base and Jigging JawJacker is legal.

  • Adjustable hook-setting tension
