Fishing Articles : Frabills Black Ops Ice Fishing Rods

Call it trickle-down ice-onomics ?how a majority of the most significant advances in ice fishing technology are the direct result of cutthroat tournament competition.

From the nation-teams competing in the international ice fishing theater to the two-man teams sparring on domestic hardwater in the NAIFC, competition drives innovation. Simple as that.

Of course, most of these ice aces keep hush-hush ?but in such close quarters, it抯 simply too difficult to keep the cat in the bag. That, and some of these guys just thrive on teaching the rest of us how to catch more fish.

Like Frabill pro staffer, Jacek Gawlinski, an NAIFC competitor and captain of the Polish National Ice Fishing Team, a guy who eats, breathes and sleeps ice fishing. Well, we抮e not sure he sleeps ?dude抯 like Red Bull in human skin. 揑 spend a lot of time fishing, that抯 what I do, and I am constantly developing, tweaking and improving on ice fishing tackle and gear designs,?says the Polish-born Gawlinski.

He抯 especially proud of his new monster, a joint-Jacek/Frabill Frankenstein called Black Ops - available in Ultra-Light ?18? Ultra-Light ?22?and Quick Tip ?26?

First glance reveals a slight resemblance to the miniscule, almost toy-like palm rods used to catch prize-winning European species no bigger than our bait. Likewise, the combo draws some parallels to the old-time 揝choolie?designs favored by eastern Ice Belt anglers ?

But on some serious 憆oids ?and with covert military budget bling.

揥e spent a lot of time getting this combo right. It offers all advantages of palm rods but for bigger American-size fish. We call it the Black Ops, because it抯 really an ice fishing weapon. Feels like an UZI or MAC-10 with suppressor in the hand. Light, quiet, but extremely powerful and dangerous at the same time,?says Gawlinski.
For starters, the Black Ops features titanium components, a one-piece reel and superlight rod blank.

That means uber-sensitive bite detection, zero jig twist, and abbreviated lengths for sight fishing and finesse bites that require a surgical approach. But it also has the backbone to land double-humped 慻ills, two-pound crappies, jumbo perch棏cause that抯 where the rubber meets the road.
