What do you guyz like and why is it better then the rest.  ::)

 For me....Windlass tip-up outfish the stationary ones. It may give that extra atraction by jigging  the bait by itself (with wind). A different setup, but I found by reading  the instructions, seting up at home, and  doing a "Dry run" so you know how it works on the ice.  I have a few, and really enjoy them. The company says it (the :tipup:) outfishes others 5:1. I find this some what true. As with any fishing situation: location, location, location. Feel free to PM me with other specifics/tips if you are interested in this tipup.

I have a few of the windlass tip-ups too. I have used them only with tiny storm jigs. I have caught a few perch on them. I still like the Polar tip ups the best. For me they do not freeze up and the line runs off the spools with ease.

I have a Jiffy auger. It is the only auger I have ever used. It is the best  ;) (for me at least)

My jigging rods are just old trout rods that the tips broke off of. They work but this season I am going to pick up a few real jigging rods...

Good luck out there

Ive always likes the Polar Tip ups.   They dont freeze and the nice thing is running towards the hole i can see the arm moving to let me know the fish is stripping line off. 

I have wanted to try the Windlass tip ups though .... they look like they would work with the slight jigging motion they impart of the bait.


Have Auger:  What do you fish under the windlass .. are you using live bait or a jig ? 

As for Augers .. i have always used a Jiffy Auger .. never had any complaints and always work well so im happy with that.

As for Jigging rods ..... ive bought some jigging rods from the tacle store, used ultra light trout rods ... all about the same as far as im concerned ... althought i do like the ultra light trout rods because they give a better feel when im jigging a rapala lure.
