Wrist Saver Ice Rods

[icechick]

Hey has anyone tried the wrist saver ice rods? I picked one up at a discount store for like 10 dollars and was just wondering how well they work. Thanks.

the fact that you paid ten bucks for it might tell ya something about it...actually i never heard of them....good luck

actually i just looked up their website and the rods normally start at $ 30.00. looks a little like a gimmick but who knows, let us know how it works...

those have been out for a few seasons, and I remeber seeing threads about them in the past, and most seemed to agree that they were a gimmicky product...the price and the fact they were in a bargin store or bargin bin tells you how popular they are...to me they look uncomfortable, when reeling

to me they look uncomfortable, when reeling

And when hooksetting...

Most spinning setups have a wrist-saver built in if you go with the "pistol-grip" style of jigging.  As an added bonus you'll have quicker hooksets becasue you'll be using a wrist action as opposed to an arm action....
