chris.brock Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 very cool, I like the long travel from tip-up to tip down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leecher Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 very cool, I like the long travel from tip-up to tip down Thanks Chris!!! Yeah I like that too... when a fish strike and the top start to go down, it catches your attention real quick and can react faster to start running toward it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moosebunk Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 very cool, I like the long travel from tip-up to tip down Agreed. You must have been using these things along time Jacques because you sure like them and can certainly make them? I can imagine where you can have 5 lines down they would be great because they're easily visible and likely effective. Only started ice fishing about 10 years ago and pretty well missed the generation which would primarily use such a thing. Although... did for a few years have a couple "Pikeslayerinators," that were called to action. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a154/Bunx/kesagami07-h1.jpg Anyways... some handy work there dood.

Thanks Drew!!! Yes I've been using these for the longest time. My dad made my very first set when I began hardwater fishing back in the late 80's and it's all I ever use. They did not have reels on them and the top was straight (front to back) no fancy stuff . As years past, I got intrigued into making my own.... my very first few set weren't fancy either but was proud to have created them As I got more comfortable using my tools, I began thinking about making a model that would stand out from the rest... the dilemma I was faced with was making a pattern on 2" wide piece of pine. Well I got to work on it for a while and with trial and error, figured it out and started producing the model that I make today Adding reels into the equation brings another layer of sensitivity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
