wrist saver rods

[Guest]

Anybody use the wrist saver rods? They small enough to use in a one man trap?

I have a wrist saver rod but have not used it yet. Bought it from this site. They are only 26" long so shouldn't be any problem to use in a one man trap.

I made a couple of my own last year with some old fiberglass jigging rods and PVC, they worked OK, took a little getting used to. I did notice a little less stress on my arm and wrist. They are tough to tansport, they don't fit in a bucket real well.

I have not bought a wrist saver yet but have looked at them a few times. I do know that now they all come with a reel. The reels were made special for the rods because an off the shelf reel doesn't work well on one because of the angle. The reels that come with the rods have a special angle to them when they mount on the rod. The reel that they supply is a very good one though.......T

When I first seen one I laughed. I told the lady selling them at the fishing show in St. Paul if she was still selling them two years from then I'll buy one. Well, I seen her last year again, and If she's at the Ice fishing show this year I;ll keep my word and (((gulp))) buy one.

These rods reduce the common wrist fatigue a person gets when jigging the straight rods. They also help increase your sensitivity and feel because of that.

They look different than a normal rod because they're designed for a comfortable, balanced fit in your hand with good writst position. It definitely does the trick.

I've used them for 2 years and I repeat, they are very comfortable and sensitive, especially when jigging.

For those of you wondering what they look like or would like to order click here.

I have been using them for both ice fishing and open water jigging. Yes they look funky, but they work. The rods are very sensitive, and durable. A great reel comes with it. You can use the same reel for both open water and ice fishing. They take just a little time to get used to holding. They really do help take the stress off the wrist. Your arm does not get tired and the end of the day from all that jigging. Highly recommended.
