This Old Tip Up
Let's use up some of the Bosses bandwith  Winter Time Fun
Please post any if you have any  Below is the start of my ice fishing Tip Up or Tilt collection used for ice fishing in NewEngland
The best part of these tipups is how the heck do they work ?
First up is a very rare "Wooden" pop -up , not sure how it works , there is a spring on the inside and a hole on the outside and a small screw , maybe missing a part or two  Have yet too see another one made of wood

These are cool and always in my bag when I head out on the ice, the problem with useing antique tip ups is the holes are to big and your equipment may fall in  |

Most of all antique tip ups are home made back in the day by some old "Yankee"

Home Made , simple stick with a spring and leather
Most of the "stick " tilts were made to lay flat on newspaper or jammed in a pile of snow |

Where is Joe ? looking around in the Barn ...lol
Just as a FYI .. The King of ice fishing tip ups is a setup that shoots off a 22 blank 
Not sure if the near by homes would like to hear "Bang" all day long
I don't own one , but always looking for it !!!! |

Dave, I think you mean connoisseur. Ice fishing the corner sewer means something totally different to us guys born and raised in Worcester. I kid you not though, Flaptail once told me which was the prefered sewer cover to fish from near the hatchery spillway. He had fished them both, maybe with you.
Nice stuff VB. I saw one time at an antique tackle show, a type of ice fishing trap where a minnow was impaled on a barb under a spring loaded multi-pronged mechanism. When the fish bit the minnow the spring mechanism released and impaled the fish. Very creative, although I'm not sure how well it worked. I susupect it probably made catch-and release a little tough though.
