You can find plenty of happy customers of both devices as well as a hand full of unhappy customers. Talking to many people about these devices I still haven't found one who has gone from using the JawJacker to the Automatic Fisherman. Over all, I couldn't tell you one or the other would be better for you! I took the stance that I am comfortable with my JawJackers and thought I would be cheating myself if I didn't at least give the Automatic Fisherman a chance. It takes a beating on the ice and holds up to being dropped, kicked Rod: - "The Automatic Fisherman is made of a high density plastic and is rated for weather up to Weight and compact and can be easily packed away in the smallest ofīrandon: - "I give the Automatic Fisherman a 10/10! It is effective for catching everything from pike to light biting trout" This is what I found from some of the advocates.īill: - "The Automatic fisherman is a beefy and has a large profile, but can beĬumbersome and take up more room to transport. I did a lot of research about these two units both from advocates of the Automatic Fisherman and advocates of the JawJacker and found that many of the reasoning behind using one unit over the other were quite common. I will say that but also say that I have caught some extremely small fish which were light biters on the JawJacker so I am not sure how much of a factor this was. He still uses his JawJacker but has had to find a unique way to set his adjustment pin. One of my fisher partners on the other hand failed to set up his JawJacker correctly which resulted in his rod holder adjustment breaking on him. I have heard a lot of people talking concerning the JawJacker's durability in the cold but I have not had any problems myself with this at all. If you have any questions about this please email or call Kerry off the website and he would be more than willing to help you out if possible. The website may be a little confusing about the warranty because they sell the base unit as well as many other accessories. The Automatic Fisherman is covered under a lifetime warranty for the base unit and trigger system. Kerry who designed the Automatic Fisherman says that he has built and distributed over 60,000 of these and has only gotten one back because the customer was using it as a hammer to try and break the ice. While at the same time, the benefit of the bulkiness is the fact that there are less moving parts, which means less parts that may break. Compared to the compact-ability of the JawJacker, the Automatic Fisherman is a lot more difficult to pack and transport. One thing that I was quickly uneasy with concerning my previous experience with the JawJacker was the size of Automatic Fisherman. The only other part of the Automatic fisherman that is a moving part is the trigger mechanism that I will discuss later. To you! The base is one solid piece excluding a support brace arm that tucks away neatly underneath when not in use and spreads out about 5 inches on each side preventing the unit from tipping over or being pulled into the hole by a hooked fish. System you could probably swim after the fish and they would surrender That your name must be Chuck Norris and you don't need any hook-set If you are fishing in weather colder than With the Automatic Fisherman, the base is made of a high density plastic that is rated for -90 below which is I added a few stickers on my Automatic Fisherman to personalize it So I decided I would give it a shot and this is how it went. I have talked to a lot of people who have used the Automatic Fisherman first and then tried the JawJacker but have not found anyone who has tried out both units by first being associated and familiar with the JawJacker. In the work since the 70's and was sort of the Grandfather of the The Automatic Fisherman has been on the market since 2002 but has been Even though I have been extremely happy with the performance of the JawJacker, in the back of my mind I have always wondered how they compared to the Automatic Fisherman. As many of you know I have been using the JawJacker now for a few seasons and have become a believer of them.
