Steve,
Use to see the guys working the machines off of Kodiak during P cod season. Unbelievable the way they worked. I would check with the dealer of the machines in Kodiak or with the commercial supply places in Seattle or Kodiak. Cod Jigging Kodiak em.wmv - YouTube Dave

Last winter I went out with a friend who has 3 jigging machines and after seeing them in action no one commercial fishing (providing they can afford them , not cheap) would go back to using an electramate or rod & reel.
These machines catch better than you can. Hit a button, drops to the bottom. Slow jigs up and down. Continually adjusts to find bottom. Fish on reels up Believe they were BJ5000 Have a pic in my phone but not sure how to upload from iPhone. |

Thats the one there. My friend modified his a bit. The pole that comes out the top going out to the outer roller, he removed that pole and glassed up some sets of fiberglass boards about 2-3 ft long and about 3 inches wide tapering narrower towards the outer roller , kind of like planer boards that gave it some action assisting in it's jigging action. |
