27. In N.J.A.C. 7:25-6.14(c), the Council proposes to repeal the existing prohibition
on devices with automatic hook setting capability and to allow the use of such
devices while ice fishing. A new type of ice fishing device has become available
to anglers with automatic hook setting capabilities. Unlike devices historically
marketed, this device may reduce hooking mortality as it diminishes the
probability of fish ingesting the hook.
I guess a few phone calls and e-mails (with pics) paid off !
