walleyejigger Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 that is the question, when ice fishing a jigging rap. or similar lure do you tip it with a minnow? whole or piece/head? onto the middle hook (treble)? i always tip spoons and such, but not sure about this one bought one last year and never used it, found it in the bottom of my box figured i'll have to give it a try, thx
BillM Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 What are you fishing for? I tip them all the time when fishing for perch.
walleyejigger Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Posted February 5, 2010 thiking of trying it for pickeral, maybe lakers too
trapshooter Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) TIP IT! This is probably the single best producer of walleye on my local lakes - the largest sized one. Tip the centre treble with a minnow. Edited February 5, 2010 by BenBeattie
bigugli Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 We tip the treble with a minnow head or a maggot.
Woodsman Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 First time on Simcoe this year no tipping required. We had our limit of perch keepers in less than 2 hours. The second time out was another story. If they were not tipped with a half of a minnow forget catching at all. A whole day fishing produced about 15 keepers each. Let the fish tell you if tipping is required.
Muskieman Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 Yep... tip the center treble with a small minnow or salmon egg... works great!! RFS
Lunker Larry Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 Remember seeing an article once where they replaced the centre hook with a drop down line of about a foot or so tipped with a minnow . Professed to be a perch slayer.

Professed to be a perch slayer. this is deadly....works great for pretty much everything that swims....I also run droppers below my jigging spoons....as short as 4" and up to 1'
