Polars for me.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an  well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, A fishing pole in one hand, beer in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming \"WOO HOO, what a ride!

HT Polar and the HT Windlass is great for a different action [self -jigging] not sure there is a bad one though as long as you get the fish.The biggest difference to me plastic frames seem to be easier to remove from the ice.
