When a fish is on, it "tips up" and flashes a flag- no different than a bobber. So you can drill a number of holes and set out a bunch of rigs and just keep an eye on them from the shack. He's probably baiting them with yummy minnows that draw in the pike and pickerel. With the hole in the shed, he would be jigging for panfish- which he said doesn't interest him.

Maybe they ARE interested, but, don't want to give him credit.

He probably hasn't patented it.

Most likely not, so, Polaris can quietly go make it and sell it w/o any fear of patent infringement.

But would it be a Polaris, a Victory, or an Indian?

Definitely POLARis.
