These are the main things that you need to look for when picking out your tip-up to ensure you have a good quality product that you can depend on. When you find a unit that has all of these features you will have a good tip-up that should greatly benefit your fishing experience.

How to Use Your Tip-Up

Now that you have enough information to make a good selection you need to know a few tips on how to use your new ice-fishing tip-up. This is a very simple unit with only four working parts. It is not difficult to set-up or use so even the inexperienced ice angler can benefit from it.

Basically the tip-up has a flat base that is designed to hold the unit in place. You set the tip-up next to the hole and prepare your line according to the jigging method that you choose to use. Once your line is set-up, lower it in the water and you are ready to begin. When you get a bite the spool will release the line causing the trip bar to make the flag go up. When the flag goes up the angler knows they have a bite.

Ice fishing is growing in popularity all the time and with inventions such as the tip-up, it’s no wonder. The freedom that it gives the angler is well appreciated and even makes it possible to fish two or three lines at a time.

When you are getting your gear together to set out on an ice fishing adventure, don’t forget to include the tip-up. It can make your fishing trip even more exciting.
