Pike Tipups

[huntervasili]

I have been wanting to buy some tip ups for the past while and will be using them mainly for pike... Which ones have you all tried and used with success... I will be using mostly big shad/sucker minnows...

Thanks for any help...

I have used the Windlass, by HT Enterprises.

I modified it by making nickel sized washers out of discarded plastic pop bottles, and putting two of them on the shaft of the line spool to act as a drag. Otherwise, it is difficult to set the drag, it is too loose or too tight.
