I got one about 2 weeks ago and love it.  I also bought some marmish jigs to go with it. I catch a lot of small perch on it. I did catch a 14.5" walleye too and a few keeper perch. I usually fish with medium size shiners and if the big fish didn't want to bite I didn't catch anything. I will never get skunked again. I can always catch small perch on the marmish. Last week I even got some shiners on it in 29 FOW. Took them into 10 FOW the next day and caught a 20" walleye, a 21" smallie a 23" northern and missed one fish that practically tore the minnow in half. I caught 4 shiners and got 4 bites the next day, wouldn't touch the minnows I bought. One thing I hear people complain about is that you have to bring the line in hand over hand to land the fish. I don't mind though, I feel that it allows ME to play the fish instead of the rod. I've missed more fish on my ice pole this year than tip-ups or the marmish. It's great just give it a chance and use the technique that the folks at marmish reccomend and you'll like it.

I bought the standard and I couldn't be happier with it.  Laced it up with .004 line (Stroft) and you can see and feel everything that's goin on down there.  Get a lot of grins cause of it but it works.

Have had my marmish rod for a few seasons now. Its a great rod for moving frequently. I also like the bite indicator with the standard rod. I have not been skunked with my marmish so far. Have caught several fish three to four times the size of the rod. I use it also when I am kayak fishing on the river...just set anchor, turn on the vex over a deep hole and jig them in.

Good luck with your marmish. I know it will treat you well.
