Paddle Bugs and Such

[flyfish_88]

I know this is probably a dumb question for most but I have only been ice fishing for a few years and have pretty much just used the little tiny jigs that glow and stuff that come in a big multi colored packs at Walmart and cal ranch. What is a paddle bug? I live in Rexburg and so I fish Henry's lake and island park most of the time I go which isn't nearly enough. I've hear people mention paddle bugs before but have never seen them in any stores. Any other recommendations for my area? Hoping to up my game a little bit this year since I have not been real successful thus far.
