We are proud to present the latest generation of the Ice Jigger which includes the following improvements while keeping the functionality that made its reputation.
– Resistant injection case
– Light signal on each side
– More robust motor
– New 7.2V battery
– Covered battery compartment
The Ice Jigger is a device designed to give life to your baits during an ice fishing session. It is used with an open-type fishing rod that is held by the support provided for this purpose. The motorized rod holder is powered by 4 AAA batteries. This waddled device makes it possible to make a controlled movement to the lure used, the speed and the amplitude of the movement are adjustable. In addition, the sensitivity of the grip can be changed with the positioning of the rod in the clamp. When the fish bites, the rod toggles and an audible alarm and a light signal notify the fisherman.
Following the change in regulations for ice fishing at the permitted bait level, NGtek seized the opportunity to develop a system that mimics the movements of a live bait.
1. OPENING THE TRIPOD
Extend the legs to the desired length (ideally maximum). Then, assemble the case on the tripod by inserting the female part of the case into the male part of the tripod and tighten the handle to secure them together.
2. POSITIONING
Place the clamp perpendicular to the housing and tighten the knurled bolt.
3.1 INSTALLATION
Open the clamp by pushing the button down and install your ice fishing rod. Be sure to position the reel upward. The end of the rod should point to the front of the case and the clip on the handle should be in front of the reel (Positioning of the rod).
3.2 PRESSURE
In order to allow the fish to not feel the line, it is necessary to reduce the tension of the brake but it must be tight enough to tilt the rod.
4. START
Put the button in the ON position.
5. ALARM
When a fish bites, the rod will swing forward once past the level and remain in that position. An audible and visual alarm will go off.
6. SENSITIVITY
To adjust the sensitivity of your Ice Jigger, you must move your rod forward or backward in the clamp to increase or decrease sensitivity (closer to the swivel = more sensitive.)
7. AMPLITUDE
Adjust the amplitude by sliding the knob forward for greater amplitude and backward for less amplitude.
8. SPEED
Adjust the speed with the “dimmer”.
