Hi guys and gals. I was at Cabelas last night and they just got a shipment of Jaw Jackers in. Looks like they have over 30 of them and sell for $45.

I also have a question. I am heading to Cold Lake this weekend and was wondering what a person would put on a Jaw Jacker for Lake Trout. Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance!

JJs have settings to lessen the initial hook set force. That being said I was using them a few weekends ago in the dark with bait at CL, all my bigger fish came during the night on them and then as the sun came up jigging became more effective again.

What kind of hook were you using with the bait?

I was at BassPro yesterday and they had them also for about the same price. Just a note for the Southern AB boy who don't have access to Cabelas.

Tried them first at Chestermere, small Pike good success! Crawling Valley with nibbling Walleye not so much, maybe 20% hookup rate, maybe! Newell this weekend see how they do with bigger fish!

Anyone tried me for a light biter like whites? I'm not convinced that they'd work very well for the light takes.

I don't know why people say they don't work good in the cold I was using them in minus 30 the other day they worked fine.

They function just fine in the cold, it's when the trigger mechanism gets wet they become useless.

A reel with a lot of line.
