I took this video of MG39's home made ice fishing trap that automatically jigs with any wind.

I know that Bob's caught tons of fish on it, but he just brought it out to show me how it works, 'cause I was naggin' him to see it.

Cool, huh?  ;D

It was near zero when we used it and you have to keep the hole clean. I generally use them later in the year when the temp is up over freezing. I only made two of them but want to get another couple going, just haven't taken the time to do it........... ;D
