I grew up using tip ups for pike on east coast. I use them out here in the west a few times. Never fished them that deep. Caught some nice bows at Otter with them, 20ft deep. I use octopus hooks. The problem using as deep as you are planning to that is alot of line to be pulling up laying on the ice to deal with. Braid freezes fast wet and laying on the ice. Fish lake Lakers and splake will run for a bit before you get to the tip up and could have bunch line out. I use automatic fisherman more these days when I want an extra line out.
