What kind of fishing pole is this?

I got this old metal fishing pole from my brother's estate. It is spooled with wire line. I can't read the manufacturer's name. Is it an ice fishing setup for pike? Or maybe an old rig for lake trout?

It's an old ice fishing rod.

The wire line is interesting because this style, at least nowadays, are generally for ice fishing for panfish with a very sensitive spring bobber on the end.

This rod is 4' long and stiff as can be because it's made of steel. I suspect it would be used for ice fishing for toothy critters.

I would attach it to my truck. If I ever got stuck I would winch myself out.
