once tipped down, is the figh able to keep pullin line off the reel? I understand the whole tip down process of the fish not feeling any tension, but once all that slack is tightened, what happens then?
what do you guys use for where the tip down pivots
Here's my tip downs I put together last season. Not as pretty as bassman's but they work. I'v got less than $30.00 into the 5. (Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)I wrapped some solder on the handles to adjust the balance by sliding it up and down the handle.(Image removed from quote.)It's nice to fold them to store when not in use.I like these allot. Off to Gander to get one of these rods. Thank you.(Image removed from quote.)
Hey Dave, some use coat hanger cut to size, others use small bolts or metal rod, and you can also use like 10ga copper wire.
My Commando is set up in the basement. I'm gonna work out some kinks this weekend.RG
