[quote splitshot_jr]pretty nice rig you got there thanks for sharing it with us what one works the best[/quote]
[cool][#0000ff]As you can see in the pics, I pretty much standardize on about 4 basic ice fishing colors: White with red spots, chartreuse with red spots, fire tiger and my own invention..."pale perch". They may all work on any given day. On other days, certain species might seem to prefer one color over another. For ice fishing, I include "super glow" powder glow in the paint jobs for most of my lures. That stuff glows bright and stays charged for hours.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Actually, I have a variety of different glow ice jigs I use...not just the "Flat Rinkees" (again, my own creations). I make small "glow wermz" in various shapes and sizes to fit the fishing conditions and the size and type bait I am using.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]More important than color is first finding the fish and then making the right presentation...with the right bait tipping your jigs. There is a lot more to ice fishing than just what lure you use.[/#0000ff]
