We determine the quickness and height of the lift-drop and the length of the pause. The gap between the magnets is adjustable.Īt that point we program a jigging sequence with a few button pushes on the main body of the unit. The angler precisely balances the rod in the holder with an adjustable magnetic detent (coupler) controlled by opposing magnets. The rod is held firmly in a rod holder on an arm that extends from the control unit. Could be a 42-inch medium-heavy rod and casting reel for lake trout. Could be a 21-inch ultralight combo for crappies. So we choose a rod-and-reel combination and lure based on the fish we're after and the situation we face. SIKU ( sic'-coo), by the way, is Inuit for "ice." Perhaps the price tags also aren't so out of line once one sees what the units are purported to do - and how they're made.

We also spend a fair share on portable shelters, not to mention the sticker shock of shopping for a wheelhouse. Underwater cameras are priced in that range. With price tags of $419.99 and $489.99, respectively, SIKU and SIKU X aren't likely to fly out of tackle stores.

The SIKU and SIKU X are billed as the world's first and only programmable fishing devices that take over jigging for us and can even set the hook once a fish bites.
