Old ice fishing gear

[WTN4ICE]

Since this is a slow time for this thread I thought I would post some pics of old gear I have collected.I have several jigging sticks,rods and some that are still a mystery.The last pic is one of my favorite pieces. I think it would be illegal in Minnesota ??? I'll post more pics later.

What is that in the last picture?

Looks like a tipup with a hook set spring to me.

That is some sweet looking gear.

I guess the last one would be a tip-up with a spring set and the trigger is an old mouse trap. It still works if the trap is set. As I said it's one of my favorites... haven't seen anything else like it anywhere.

Cool way to decorate a room. I like how you have old pictures with them. I really enjoy thinking about how they did it before all this gear was "won't fish without it".
