I use them and think they are great, there is not a lot of space between the ice and your reel when it is set up so you want to keep the area where it is sitting as clear as you can to keep snow and ice from interfering with the action. And the wire that holds the rod will fall into your hole from 20 feet away, and seem to become lost very easily. But I can't count the number of rods that they have saved, not to mention bite detection.
