Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

While investigating a purchase of a Jaw Jacker I went on YouTube and discovered homemade PVC versions of similar devices… I need to try this!. This design seems to be the most economic and easy to build variant.

Iv'e been looking at them also and if you continue to look there are numerous people who have made there own versions.

Yeah i looked at quite a few homemade on YouTube... i like this design to start out but i already see some room for improvement i want to incorporate into a version for me.

i have handline tip ups that i rarely use for N.Pike because i just don't like handlining... i prefer to fight a fish with a rod and reel.

 

(3) lines for Michigan... i will make (2)

I have yet to try my Jaw Jacker I got for Christmas 2015 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oaju2nrqD4Y

I also have an HT Rod Tender Ice Rigger which tripped a flag a few times out on the ice but I came up with nothing .
