Took inventory of what I wanted as far as tubes and ordered some online. Got some great new colors that the trout will probably like. Also ordered some more jigging lures, just waiting for them to arrive. I will be respooling my reels with new line and then I should be ready to go. Earliest I've ever started to get ready. I'm itching to get on the hard deck.Hey Paul, hopefully we can get a chance to fish the hard deck together sometime this year... Would enjoy sharing a trip sometime... I sure need to do a thorough cleaning of my gear, I'm terrible and I keep throwing more stuff in the box and I can't find anything anymore... Plus I need to locate all the good stuff I transferred into my summer box that never got used and get it back into the winter box... If I'd only take the stuff that I know I'll never use out of my box I'm sure it would be a lot easier to decide what to use.. I think if truth be known, I only use maybe a half dozen different lures all ice season... Most are tungsten jigs or Maniac Cut'r bugs, then they become the bait delivery device... I think the wax or meal worms or chunk of perch where legal seal the deal most of the time.... Later Jeff
I know what you are talking about with using the same things. I do the same. Although I like to mix it up in the hopes of enticing a big fish to bite with some bigger offerings on occasion.
