Would love to have seen more “tips” for tip up fishing. How to tie up the leader and how to rig for different species. Maybe discuss types of areas to use tip ups and how to set them up correctly. Basically cover information for people new to tip up fishing.
HEY Larry: Being an "outdoorsman" we are "environmentalist" as well. With that in mind, being a TV host you have different view points from different viewers, any comment on the Back 40 Mine along the Menominee river where you have featured on your shows?
Nice video Larry! My question is. Once you find the bottom with the weight on the tip-up what's the best way to set the depth you want to fish? Guessing your going to have to compensate for the thickness of the ice once the tip-up is put down and the spool in the water. After all these years I'm still running the magnetic plastic tube tip-ups! Haven't tried any other brand! LOL
Larry Smith outdoors hope. You had a. Good Thanksgiving I have a question how. Can I put 50 yards of line on my beaver dams without it. Creating a rats nest
@gregbeebe1317 I'm sitting in a shack.jigging buddy, looking out the windows in... vermont, you're allowed 8 lines...I use heritage one of my good buddies use b.dams
You pretend to be such an expert! What a joke, you did two stupid things so far in the video. 1) you commented about the extra piece of metal on the flag staff. You said you often take it off. Do you even know what it is for ? It make the flag more wind proof. One side of the flag staff is supposed to go on one side of the reel shaft, while the other metal piece goes on the opposite side of the reel shaft. That way to wind can not blow the flag loose. It adds no extra drag to the release. 2) you showed how to put line on the reel using a cordless drill. The tip-up reel was turning to spool line while the line spool was laying flat on the work bench. The new line was coming off the end of the line spool, putting a twist in each coil. The line spool should be positioned so that it also spins (vertical is best), avoiding adding twists to the line. Have you ever tried to coil a stiff garden hose ? Think about it !

Great to hear!
My dad always used beaver dam and this year I picked up 3 for myself. Got an Eskimo 3i and a heater for some overnights. Thanks for the vid!
Good choice!
Awesome How to live stream, my drill found a new use

What about or your opinion on the round style like frabill pro that covers the hole?
What kind grease do you use on your tip ups
please put a size limit on walleyes on winnebago system!!!
Maybe!!
What brand? In line? Like the red color.
You the man Larry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you the man!

Yes, exactly
Or even come with 1 flag but choice of 3 & option to buy other tension spring/flag.
you ever heard of jack traps out of maine best tip up ever made
Thx for the tip up tips!
Darn, I missed this. Good tips.
lol, tev2229 asked what flavor Johnsville is best for pike!
We'll be uploading more so tune in!
Great ice fishing talk!
Thanks for watching!

What a good trick with the drill . Subbed
THANK YOU! We appreciate the support!
Larry, you ever use Bite Me Box tip-up?
Only a few times, the gill-o-tine is my favorite!
What pound test do you use?
Matters what yoir fishing 4.. Isnt a universal lb. Test. But generally some 10-20 pound will do
Not sure if they fixed the problem
Hownto rig TIP UPS for ice fishing... LOL is there a way to use them in open water?
you can use the gill-o-tine in your boat!
Lb. Line I meant.
nic your video brother👏👏👍👍😁😁
So damn awesome!!!
Nice vid bud
Frabil flags fall off lol on fisbee type
I hate both of those tip ups. Check out jack traps
We'll be sure to check them out
Sadly , those tip- ups are useless where I live. Jack Traps, Max Traps, heritage , etc are needed here
Thanks for the insight
@@LarrySmithOutdoors Snow pack and how we cover the lake in traps makes it hard to use a low style trap.
Beaver dam style tipups are useless when its snowing or blowing snow on the lake and snowmobile and quads run them over constantly
Good to know
Then maybe don't abandon your tip up and you won't have issues with ski-dos and quads running them over.
@gregbeebe1317 I'm sitting in a shack.jigging buddy, looking out the windows in... vermont, you're allowed 8 lines...I use heritage one of my good buddies use b.dams
I ended up building my own smart automatic tip-up for detecting those really light biting fish: th-cam.com/video/LGrqOStn7Qw/w-d-xo.html
Holy cats! We'll be sure to check it out
Way too much talking about nothing. I was hoping to find out how to set it up and how it reels up from the water how to set the bait
Thanks for watching. We will try to improve future episodes
