Always interesting to hear the different geographic terminology for items. Nobody in Michigan would know what an ice fishing 'trap' was...and Im guessing you dont call them tip-ups in your neck of the woods. Cool find. Yup….use both terms

You will probably want my collection of antique pocket watch compasses, duck decoys, Coleman lanterns, and all the other flotsam and jetsam I have hanging around here too, eh? Moosetrot

Lots of Cottage tackle makers around Paw Paw, Dowagiac also. Well honestly all over Michigan, and around Saginaw Bay and any great fishing area in the Great Lake State. Some great collectable gear was made years ago by guys in a home garage, and still is.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

What do you expect from a fella who, when he goes into town, drinks from a bubbla.  He's got a ton of those alternative terms. I find them entertaining.
