Description

The Vexilar Sidekick Thermal Tip Up is a smart add-on for ice anglers who want a cleaner, more controlled tip-up setup in cold northern conditions. Its thermal style design helps cover the hole and slow ice buildup, which is a big deal when the wind is cutting across the lake and your coffee is trying to freeze first. Built for use with the Vexilar Sidekick, it gives you a practical way to manage a set line while keeping your electronics system in the game. This listing includes the thermal tip-up only, so plan accordingly if you still need the Sidekick. Simple, purposeful, and easy to pack, it is the kind of accessory that earns its spot in the sled.

Reviews and Q&A

FAQs

No. This listing is for the Vexilar Sidekick Thermal Tip Up only, and the Sidekick is not included. If you are building the full setup, make sure you already have the compatible Sidekick or add it separately before heading out on the ice.
A thermal tip-up covers the ice hole while you fish a set line, helping reduce freeze-up and keeping the setup cleaner in cold, windy conditions. It is especially useful during long sits on the lake when open holes can skim over faster than expected.
Yes, this style of accessory makes sense for northern ice because it helps manage the hole and line when temperatures, wind, and blowing snow are working against you. It is not a substitute for good ice habits, but it is a handy tool in the sled.
This product is intended for use with the Vexilar Sidekick, so do not assume it will work the same as a standalone tip-up or with other gear. For best results, match it with the equipment it was designed around and avoid garage-engineering surprises.
