With ice fishing there can and are accidental bites/hookups. As I see it. For example, the beast is going in for the dinner with mouth open and after other fish...ice fly is there and in the process they hit the fly while after the fish. We've also had Tigers on through the ice that Perch or Crappie as we we're pulling them up. Had that happen last year pulled up the Crappie with a nice gash on its side. So through the ice yes there can be accidental hookups.
Now soft water fishing potentially the same scenario but not as likely. Look at Tigers that have hit stringers with Bass, crappie and perch on them.
Finally, thanks for sharing the picture and sincere Congrats to the Angler on the Beautiful Tiger...awesome catch and for sure that one has been eat'n good in the neighborhood.
