does anyone know the laws on treble hooks for icefishing with live bait?

In the past couple years I have switched over to primarily 1 treble hook on my tip-ups

Using the following info taken out of the angler's guide, you can use one treble hook for a tip-up , if you are jigging and your lure has a single hook you can have 3 lures or 1 lure with a treble hook.

FISHHOOK or hook: A curved, pointed device, with or without
barb, used to catch fish. Hooks may be single, double or treble
and each point shall be considered as a single hook.




ICE FISHING: Not more than six tip-ups, floats (bobbers), similar
devices, or hand-held jigs or any combination thereof not exceeding
six in the aggregate may be used at one time. Persons under
sixteen years of age may use not more than two devices. Not
more than three baited hooks, with or without attractors, or three
ice flies, or three artificial lures, or any combination thereof not
exceeding three in the aggregate may be used with each tip-up,
float (bobber), or similar device or hand-held jig. Devices must be
personally attended. The name and address of the user must be
legibly stamped on or attached to all devices.

thank you very much. I saw that in the law book but for some reason I remember not being able to use them for ice fishing. they must have changed the law the last couple of years.

just dont try using TNT on your treble hook thats how we ended up on that little iceburg in my profile pic lol

I see that the TNT must of knocked you both semi-conscious
You have a flag and you are both just sitting there

Like you havent done that before!I think I remember it was 2 flags!

lol!!! i think at that point we were trolling lol

Don't even go there with me Mr tbob, we been down this road already remember??
If I was not told "this is where we are fishing", drilled all my own holes after being told it would be taken care of for me

Then upon the arrival of a cranky azz friend of yours, you decide to drag me 1/2 way across the lake...so I can watch my tip-ups at night.

Let this be a warning to anyone Mr tbob may invite ice fishing, BEWARE

TOOO FUNNNY!I guess I will never hear the end of this one!

One more thing!! Are you done hijacking the poor guys thread

I also noticed the TNT did not knock your beer off the berg either! Nice job holding on with both hands.

got to save the beer!!!
