    Clip on a bucket and fill it with water and let the rod holder do the rest. Auto pull that sets the hook when the fish bites. Pretty neat design. You check it out on missnofish.com or YouTube it.

    I designed a similar device when I has a kid 25-30 yrs ago. It worked well. I got my design notarized and I was on my way to making a few bucks … then I realized it was illegal in MN. doah Oh well it was fun designing and making it.

    Correct.

    97C.325 RESTRICTIONS ON TAKING FISH.
    (a) Except as specifically authorized, a person may not take fish with:
    (1) explosives, chemicals, drugs, poisons, lime, medicated bait, fish berries, or other similar substances;
    (2) substances or devices that kill, stun, or affect the nervous system of fish;
    (3) nets, traps, trot lines, or snares; or
    (4) spring devices that impale, hook, or capture fish.

    After watching the video this is not like the one I designed. Mine actually set the hook hard. This one has a super weak bungee that looks like it can barley tip up the rod. Even though it looks to be a very poor design it’s still illegal in MN.
