We thought of everything when it comes to building a professional tip-down system. Innovative Tip-Downs were built for ease of use and flexibility not found in traditional homemade tip-downs. You would never be able to build your own tip-downs with the features you will find on an Innovative Tip-Down without spending a fortune.
Allow us to give you an in-depth overview of the features of our Innovative Tip-Downs.
- 36" extendable inner tube for setting your tip-downs as high as possible for the most visibility and ease of use while allowing you to lower the inner tube on windier days.
- Each tip-down sits on a 4-legged base keeping it up off the ice to prevent freezing.
- The leg stand also screws into the bottom of the tip-down.
- One solid piece = easy to move and adjust.
- Heavy action rod for assistance in setting the hook.
- Reel has a handle for easy bait retrieval.
- Features two rod guides for keeping the line straight in use and while retrieving.
- Hollow rod end with cap to add weight balancing for larger baits or use in deeper waters where heavier weights are desired.
- Nylon loop for easily extending the rod base when setting up.
- The entire system can be disassembled without removing your gloves or getting your hands wet.
- Innovative Tip-Downs fold up in to a solid tube that is 24" long and 2" in diameter for easy storing and carrying.

The big problem is the reel. Line can get caught on the side. I really wish they came with a fly rod style reel with a drag system.

The rod spool is ridiculous. Hold it with your thumb when setting the hook. Otherwise, bye bye fish

These are a really good way to catch a mess of fish, using a small sinker, a tiny treble hook, and a red rosy minnow ... Perch, Crappie are the main target with these kind. The picture attached are all nice crappies I caught in one day on an Innovative tip down.Pros- Very compact and lightweight, easy to transport (wayyy easier than a normal tip down)Performance is good, didn't lose a single fish on it.The reel lets out line right away when it goes down, so the fish can't feel it and spit the minnow.Adjustable height good for windy conditionsLooks sharp and does everything pretty wellCONS..The reel is quite small, so fishing deep water may be an issue ( anything under 30 ft should be fine)Can be a pain to put back into the tube, because theres a specific way to put everything together.Overall, when you get the hang of these, they are very efficient and a ton of fun.

Ordered 2 of these tip-downs they work well but don't expect to reel them in which is what I was hoping for rather than having to hand over hand them. I do like the compact storage that is a great plus all self contained and no hooks loose in the sled! The one problem I did have on them is the line coming off the reel and getting between the reel and the rod which means taking them apart to fix them they do come apart pretty easily but on the ice not that easy in the cold.Another advantage to these is the back of the rod can store items but what I have used them for is counter weights in the wind.
