You make several good points there but sometimes they get a taste of the plastic or smell it and they either wont touch it or wont hold it long enough for a hookset. I never tipped till i moved to utah but i always do when i ice fish because i suck at it. Last fall i met up with fishound at the berry and i started out without tipping and i wasnt getting bites.When i tipped with chub meat i started catching fish. I guess what ever works for the fisherman go with it.
