Sullivan Tip Drop (Purple) – Patented Tipping Deadstick Rod Holder by Sullivan Tip Down

Overview

The Sullivan Tip Drop Purple masterfully blends a patented tipping design with practical features that anglers rely on for reliable rod security and heightened sensitivity. Its knee-high profile minimizes line bow, helping you better read subtle bites in a range of water conditions—from calm ponds to windy shores.

Designed for versatility, this rod holder lets you target panfish by switching rods and pursue larger quarry like pike with a simple rod swap. The movable flag can gently entice your bait to move on its own, while you always have the option to remove the flag to keep the bait still during gusty winds. Its compact footprint folds to fit four units neatly inside a standard 5-gallon bucket, simplifying transport and storage for daily outings or weekend trips.

Visibility matters when you’re fishing at dawn, dusk, or in dim light. This Purple model features a lighted upright tube to boost visibility, and finger lights are compatible for added illumination where needed. The setup also suits dark-water scenarios or foggy days, helping you manage rigs with ease.

Key features you’ll notice on setup include adjustable sensitivity to match your preferred feel, secure rod hold, a bright color option for easy identification, and models for both left-handed and right-handed reels. Made in the USA by Sullivan Tip Down LLC, the Tip Drop Purple is built for durability and repeated use.
