ABSTRACT:
A wind dependent jigging device for ice and dock fishing with a jigger rod (22) mounted on a bucket (20) that uses wind gusts to oscillate jigger rod (22). Wind gusts hit wind catch (42) on crank rod (26) from the rear side of wind catch (42) to cause pivot rod (28) to rotate in oscillation guides (34A) and (34B) to lift jigging arm (32) to cause hook (58) attached to fishing line (56) attached to line clip (52) on jigging arm (32) to move up and down randomly in frequency and degree depending on wind gust strength. Translational pivot guide (34D) adds another component to the up and down jigging stroke by creating a pull stroke and a bump as pivot rod (28) moves in translational pivot guide (34D). Balance weights (46A) and (46B) help balance and adjust the jigger rod (22) and create bumps that make hook (58) jump to create unique jigging action. Jigger rod (22) is detachable from bucket (20) by removing from oscillation guides (34A) and (34B) through jigger rod removal slots (36A) and (36B). Jigger rod (22) is removable from pivot guide (34C) and translational pivot guide (34D) through jigger rod removal slots (36C) and (36D). Jigger rod (22) can be taken apart at pivot rod union (40) for easy transport in bucket (20) with other fishing tackle. Pivot rod union (40) allows for many different configurations of jigger rod (22).
