Cudz Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) I have not been as successful as I would like to be this year on the hardwater on Simcoe. If you had a choice of lure to jig what would it be. I am after lakers and whitefish in that order. Keep in mind that one hole will have a tip up with spreader using shiners. In the second hole I will be jigging with: a ) Williams half and half ice fishing lure b ) white tube jig c ) white tube jig tipped with shiner d ) Bad Boyz jig tipped with microtube I am leaning toward the williams but if there are any other suggestions please do not hesitate.

johnnyb Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Cudz -- so far this year I'm seeing the most success on spoons, then bad boyz. I'm one for two, and it was a silver williams jigging spoon with a small patch of green prism tape. But most of the success around me has been on spoons...with fish being about 3-4 feet off bottom. WHen fish were right on bottom, I caught mine, and the guys doing well around me were using bad boyz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnpro Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 You would be surprised at what 2 split shots and a hook can do out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richyb Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Williams , I jig with 2 lines , one with a w60 ice jig 1/2 & 1/2 and the other a w50 williams wobbler. I seem to get my share of fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12footspringbok Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Not that i've had alot of luck with lakers on simcoe, but my best luck has come on a blue/silver little cleo tipped with a small minnow jigged right on bottom. After that i'd go with the williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhare Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 save your money and leave the minnows I would take a large 1/2 and 1/2 and and pack of white zoom tubes. start with the spoon, work the bottom do you have a finder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richyb Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 You jig with 2 lines at once? Am I reading that right? so are your hole like 4 ft apart? Yeah 2 lines at once.. Cut a hole right infront of me and then one about 4 feet to my left. I put a stick across the 2nd hole for the line to slide on, sit on my sled and jig away. The second line is more of a sideways jig that slides on the stick over the 2nd hole. If you dont put something over the hole for the line to slide on , the line will freeze into the ice. Sure is fun when a fish hits the 2nd line YEHAWWWWWWWWW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure is fun when a fish hits the 2nd line YEHAWWWWWWWWW Its even more fun when you get one on each!! Sometimes not so much fun when you get one on either, and it wraps up in the other Every fish I've caught from simcoe this season so far has been on the badboy tipped with a 2" tube. I did, however, snag a laker, right in the side, with a williams What a pain in the getting that one up the hole to get my lure back!! I'm a die hard williams fan though. I don't go icefishing anywhere without a rod rigged with a williams. Sinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
