Pass the Pepper Please.

I I went to Tibble fork today with a buddy.


I caught two in the first 30 min, My buddy caught none. I was using some greens and Yellow/white tubes tipped with wax worms and told him to try this Pumpkin pepper jig the Twins told me about on the fishing forums, (I told him all about you guys, He's not a member)

So he tips it with a waxie and starts catching fish, then use's worms and catches more fish so I switch to Pumpkin Pepper and do good too. we caught 18 in two and a half hours. Mostly Rainbows but about 5 browns.
This Lure caught one for him.

Thanks for the tip Twins, they worked well and he out fished me today and he only had one pole. We noticed the worms worked just as well over all if not better then waxies, we might start using worms. The ice was 8 and1/2 inches where we were, closer to the East side right in the middle and we never moved. They were small but fun, a lot of action and a good sun burn.


Seen 7 people fishing the open water on the East end, not sure how they did. we were the only ones on the Lake Ice fishing. Families with Kids and Sheds showed up at 12:30 so we left the fun of the Ice to them.

Those pumkin peppers are the right stuff....although we get ours from Live Line Baits up in Oregon. Fish Tech had some that were the right color but HUGE in size. Tried them out everytime I go out and still have yet to get a bite. Those pumpkin peppers are our go to just about anywhere we visit. When we showed the late and oh so great T.D. those jigs he said they are a good color and to make them better they could use some eyes. Bought some eyes...just have not attatched them yet. I had a couple of trout puke up that exact some color on me at Scofield...no wonder they work. Glad they are working for you too.

Awesome title and great pics! They have NEVER failed me at any lake I have taken them to while ice fishing. They work on perch, all trout species, and kokes.

As for places.....Pineview, Causey, Mantua, Echo, Rockport, Strawberry, Tibble Fork, Red Pine Lake, East Canyon, and Scofield.

Wish I would have dropped it in Utah Lake but we had Tube Dude gear!

In the summer it picked up a perch at Mantua while jigging off a boat. Haven't really tested it for the summer time though.

In the past I have used wax worms but I hear nightcrawlers work better! Testing that out this year.

BTW- The Fish Tech version is coverd in salt.
