    I don’t know if you all have seen this or not but is pretty cool Finicky Fooler. I was playing with one at the bait store and of course had to get one. I’m a gear geek. But very simple and easy to use. I have the I fish pro and I will have to see which one works better

    I’m thinking I will like these better than the Ifish. You will have to get a good review written up for them once used! Only thing that worries me is packing them up when done. The tabs holding the rods into the unit look thin and prone to breaking in the cold. I would also be concerned about ice buildup on the rods and not being able to get them in their slots when putting away for the day.

    You guys ever use the arctic warriors? I really like them and think they perform pretty well. Nothing to attach to the line, sturdy construction and a small form factor. I throw 2-3 or them in a backpack and am good to go.

    Only downside is the little thing you have to velcro to the rod, but it doesn’t bother me much. Someone with a bit of an engineering mind could probably rig up something that didn’t require you to attach anything to the rod though.

    They don’t insulate the hole like the iFish does, but honestly the iFish pros are just too big for me to lug around.

    Also, you can get the warriors for like $15-20…

    This same thing was posted ,and dusted, by another guy awhile back….
    I replied then about it was about the same thing as the HT Ice Rigger…
    I’ve had 2 Riggers for years……A different trigger system than this,but it works….

    Ive used the ice riggers for years before I purchased the Finicky Fooler last year. I was hooked from day one. Its incredibly diverse I use it for everything. It replaced my tip ups and my tip downs.
