Tossing a Ned Rig between reeds works well at Crooked in the spring. For more action substitute a TRD for a baby goat!

Caught this Pike on a tip up. #4 hook and a minnow does the trick. Target ledges and places that fish can relate to while fishing on ice. The recommended jigs should help anyone get started ice fishing!

Surprise catch jigging for pike! It was a great surprise though! Make sure to seek out underwater structure when fishing on ice and let your bait jig, flutter, and pause.

Ice Fishing Jigs

Open Water/Basin
Jig around at the bottom with these jigs. If you have electronics, wait until the fish comes up to the lure, jig it for 2 seconds, and then let it be still. I caught lots like that, and this one was a beast!

Caught fishing a jerkbait with long pauses in between each twitch. The fish really need time to decide when to strike in the fall, so be sure to add long pauses between twitches. These X-Raps are absolute magic on northern Michigan lakes! A must have!
