What are the odds?

I too have often wondered if the high output (wattage) units have an adverse affect on fish. I don't have any evidence that it does, but I have thought about it. I do know that if I don't hold onto my pole, I catch fewer fish. Using a "Jaw Jacker" or what ever they are called or setting the pole on a stand to wait for a bite is not as effective. Miss too many hits, especially during late ice season. The electronics let me know a fish is in the vicinity and all I have to do is wait for the slightest movement of the pole tip and set the hook. Very often one small bump is all you get. During late ice season, I often have to use a tip sensor to detect the bite.
