I made a tipup a few years back that was made with a mouse trap attached to it. it gets set with mouse trap set and flag over mouse trap arm, when a fish strikes the bait hard, it trips the mouse trap and not only kicks the flag up but also sets the hook. Pretty kewl concept my fishing buddies all laughed, till they seen how it worked. I seem to have misplaced over the years, so I don't have a pic of it, but I have a sketch I could email you if anyone is interested in seeing it. just drop me a mesage with your email

depending where you are in canada Sammy, check your regulations, i believe in ontario spring loaded anything and i believe that includes mousetraps are illegal when fishing... i got a fine for a spring loaded hook years ago. was in my shack and they seen it one the wall...
