With ice fishing just a few months away, I'm getting excited. I'm definitely going to be spending some money on some new ice-fishing toys. There's something called a Rock-n-reel that I'm very interested in. Basically, it's a very well balanced rod holder that allows the fishing rods tip to follow a downward path when a fish grabs the bait/hook without the fish ever feeling any unnatural resistence.
There's another item that I just heard about also. It's basically an inflatable tube that you stick in the hole that you drilled when you'll be away from the hole for a period of time. When you're ready to fish that hole, just deflate and the hole won't be frozen over.
Simple ideas but probably well worth it. What other toys are out there that I should know about and consider? What toys are you considering?
