Do you like to ice fish with big, live bait to catch that monster pike or lake trout? Are you sick of chasing bait flags on your super sensitive Jack Traps? We have the answer for you! Our Big Bait Band works similar to a downrigger release. Just place the band around the center post of the trap under your reel, tuck your line into the band by pulling the tab on the band and it holds your big bait from setting off the trip mechanism. When the fish takes your bait the line easily releases from the band, sets off your flag and you are free spooling with NO resistance from a drag. Here at Jack Traps do not believe in having a drag on your ice fishing tip-up; fish will drop the bait more often than not when they feel that resistance on the reel. Less resistance means you’ll catch more fish! Tension adjustments can be made by placing your line lower or higher in the band. The higher you place your line the more tightly it will hold for larger bait. Package includes 6 Big Bait Bands
