So in NY, you can have 7 lines in the water when ice fishing. This can be 7 tip-ups (which i never do, i always jig), 6 tip-ups + a jigging rod, 5 tip-ups + a jigging rod + a dead stick (my favorite set-up), etc. Thats a lot of lines in the water, which can be good on a slow day. My question is, when you guys are on a multispecies lake, how many lines do you use? When targeting walleye, how many of you take advantage and max out your lines by adding tip-ups while jigging? I like having a spread; but if I want to move, I need to take down and reset 5 or 6 tip-ups. Thats a lot of extra holes to drill and a lot of extra time spend tending and moving all of them. They really limit mobility. I’m torn because I like to have extra lines and utilize all my tools, but i often feel anchored by my tip-ups.
