Anyone use these? I picked one up yesterday, thinking of running a 42″ Fenwick ice rod (MH) off of it using dead smelt or herring. Any tips, trick or advise for running big dead bait off of it? Seems big live bait will trip the flag every time base off of the pivot point and sensitivity…am I wrong on this? I’m thinking I won’t be able to have the bail open, but cranked to the left, set super light and when the flag trips, open bail, tighten drag, fight fish per instructions.
looking for feedback/pros/cons to this tool.
thanks guys.
