Use Tip Downs with minnows, easiest and best way to catch Crappies and Big Perch.

Thanks for all the purchases

Tip Downs are great, you can see them from distance and they catch a lot of fish!

I’ve sold quite a few to people on here from WI.

Lots of them, joint pain, memory loss, vision problems, headaches, foot pain, cold feet, weird shooting pain like electricity, and many more

My memory is terrible, lots of pain, tired, vision issues, there is no way to totally cure it, all they can do is depress it so your symptoms go away or get better. Worst thing I have ever had, cancer was no where as bad, I’m praying they can fix it.

Is there a good place to go to, I have bartonella as well and its not good, my memory is gone, lots of joint pain, vision is worse, headaches and more.

I was on 8 antibiotic pills a day for 2 months, now i’m on natural pills and drops. Insurance probably wont cover it. I got it 4 years ago, I was tested for Lymes 3 times before I finally found a tick place that would test for more than Lymes.

I hope she gets better

Selling again this year, might be my last year. Same price as last year.

I finally figured out what has been affecting me and getting worse as time goes on. I got bit by a very tiny tick 5 years ago during deer season. I was tested for Lymes 3 times and all negative. I finally found a tick place in Woodruff and they tested for 12 different things and I ended up having Bartonella.

Not doing well and it is difficult to cure. 2 months of 8 antibiotic pills a day and now on 14 natural pills a day.

You should have a couple Tip Downs.. You will catch more.

Good to hear, there are times, which is almost all the time, they will out fish jigging.

TTT.

Sorry I don’t get over there, I can ship them. Shipping on 4 or more is free.

There are a lot of people making them now. Most copied our design which is fine with me. When I first moved to Eau Claire 20 years ago, no one knew what Tip Downs were.

A few locals came up with their design after watching us slay the Crappies and Perch. Sullivan Tip Downs were created a few years after they saw mine. Sure Strike copied our original wood design and their grandson tried to blame me for copying their design, until I sent him a link to pictures I post on the web years before they started making them.

My father and cousin started making them back in the 70s after seeing an older gentleman using long light tree branches for rods. They only bent over and didn’t tip. They finally came up with the design made out of wood.

I switched to PVC so that the frames don’t get wet, swell, and need to be dried out. They still fold flat and weigh almost the same.

Thank you all for the kind comments, my father enjoyed making them when he was still alive and I’m sure he still does

Thanks for the comment!

I had to raise the price to $33 each, Rods are almost impossible to find, I had to pay a higher price for the ones that I could find.

I had to raise the price to $33 each, Rods are almost impossible to find, I had to pay a higher price for the ones that I could find.

I will be making Tip Downs again this year, I’m going to do my best to keep the price the same as last year. Everything has went up in price again, but I have most parts left from last year other than poles.

Poles are difficult to find but I’m working with a friend to make them for me.

Cost will be $30 each with free shipping on 3 or more if you are in the area that Spee Dee delivers, WI, MI, IL, MN, IA, SD, ND, and IL. Less than three, shipping is roughly $7-$8

Yea I already have the clam plate and 8” lite flite auger setup. I think I’m gonna add the gearbox to the plate this year and try it

I have the same setup and I added the gear box to mine. Major difference, lots more torque and less speed especially when you first start the drill going.

Well worth buying..

Zatiran’s is great, it can also be used with some beer to make a liquid batter. You cannot beat the price for the amount you get..

Use Tip Downs, much more effective and can be seen from longer distances allowing you to cover more area.

we use tip downs, you can watch the rod tip down..

May be interested, I will talk to my step son and see if he is still looking for one.

Thanks

One of the best panfish baits. Unfortunately the liberal politicians/judge in WI made it illegal to dredge a lot of the rivers where they get the Mayfly Larvae from. When you can find them, they are expensive.

That’s a good deal, tempted to buy them myself. Poles are impossible to get, I just sold my last ones today.

still have a few left, and then I’m out of poles for the year.

There is a recall on some of the 8″ lite Flite blades, but I think it is on newer ones.

Wax worm are moth larvae. Spikes or maggots are blowfly larvae. Spikes hold up much better than wax worm and are easier to keep long term.

Wax worms need to be kept cool but not too cold, spikes can be kept just above freezing for months.

If it’s really clear, we would fish it at night with Tip Downs. We now add lights.

Yup, it’s everything….I sell PVC pipe, fittings, valves, etc for water & sewer applications, and pipe has gone up about 35-40%. Made in the USA, but they say getting the raw goods to make the stuff is tough to get.

Construction demand is at an all time high, people still paying the higher prices….no end in sight.

I make and sell Tip Downs, the frames are made from 1/2″ Schedule 40 PVC. Last year a 10′ piece was $1.99. This year it is $4.41, more than double the price. The cost of poles is higher, as well as all of the other parts, treble hooks, Line, Swivels, Eye screws, Snap Locks, Bolts, Wing nuts, sinkers, safety line. Add all of these up and I can see why things have gone up, I have only raised my price to cover the extra cost of shipping and PVC. But I switched to free shipping on 2 or more.

Remember everything that you touch has been on a truck at some point, with Sleepy Joe restricting oil drilling, fuel has raised the price of everything.

For some unknown reason, I cannot edit the original post. I had to raise the price to $30 each, but I will ship for free if you order 2 or more.

PVC has doubled in price and the poles are difficult to find at a reasonable cost.

Sorry about the increase, you can thank Sleepy Joe!!!!!!
