Not too rough to pull a fish up with a tip up ya’ll. THat’s why I like to go at it with a group effort mindset. ANyone can pull in the fish, it’s the getting out to the right spot and putting in the time that counts in ice fishing (tip ups anyways). 
Quote:
I’ll try and guess the story: Set up tip up, go drink a beer, look at tip up, no movement, have another beer, look at tip up, no movement, have another beer, look at tip up, oh crap there’s a flag. 3 man race to said flag, ozzy wins the race, watches for a second, gives her a solid BomberA hookset and pulls it up thinking another slimy northern only to see another5+ come out of the ice.
I was busy with another flag-up about twenty yards away when ozzky did the Skilled catching of this 5 pounder. I took the wrong the flag i guess. 
ha ha! No alcohol bomber, otherwise you were right on.
