Behold The Wind Powered Auto Jigger

Modeled after Duchamp’s 1913 ready made, Bicycle Wheel, this auto-jigger harnesses the power of the wind. A silver dinner bell rings when a fish bites. Perfect for catching panfish and Dadaists. Debuts Sunday January 29th, 2012 at the Art Shanty Projects.

The Art Shanty Project is a four-week art show slash social experiment inspired by traditional ice fishing huts. The show is open until February 5th, and is taking place on Medicine Lake, Plymouth, Minnesota.

Maybe wind power isn’t your thing. Well how about steam power?

The Rocket Powered Ice Fishing Rig

Ok, it’s not really rocket powered, instead the rocket acts more like an alert system for when a fish takes your bait.

For obvious reasons the rocket cannot be hooked up to the line on the reel and send your catch flying in to the air.

We’ve covered the Wavealk kayaks in the past, and it’s no doubt that they’re some of the most bad ass kayaks we’ve seen for fishing. Check out this video where a guy retrofitted a leaf blower into an air powered motor for his wavewalk!

It doesn’t look very efficient, but it sure beats paddling!

The Lawnmower Powered Canoe

Here at Fishing Fury we love DIY home-built boats and fishing gear, and the lawnmower powered canoe is no different- complete with steering wheel console, throttle control, even a stereo system! The driver sits in the very front, where the steering console is located, and the motor hangs off the back of the canoe. So far the only thing left to complete is the electric starter so you don’t have to climb into the back to pull start the motor, and then climb back to the front steering console without ending up in the drink.
