Panfish on Tip-Ups

[lunkerpike]

dave...the tip-ups I'm talking about are a kind that I bought (got 'em on clearance when they were discontinued). To make the idea more clear...they use a a regular spincast reel or even a spinning reel from either your summer or winter rig. The reel is clamped onto the side of a square-like frame that is connected tp a circular piece of plastic that covers your hole. The line comes out of the reel and goes through a "hair trigger" devise that releases the flag...then thru a small hole in the bottom of the circular piece and down into the water. I got these tip-ups for pike/walleye, but they proved to have too much of a "hair trigger" and the flag would go up and spook the fish before they took the bait. thanks again, lunkerpike
