I was just reading the NY regs. and it says no tip up shale have more than 5 hooks or lures or no more than 15 hook points. So my question is how many do must people run? I usually use 1 hook (treble or circle). After reading that I might add more to cover more of the water column. I normally only use tip up one weekend a year and that is for or guys drinking, I mean ice fishing trip.
Also wouldn't the extra hooks catch the bottum of the hole?
