Ice Fishing Lure
If you are in the market for an ice fishing lure, you can be
assured there are thousands to choose from. Let’s take a look at
some of the lures available today.
One ice fishing lure that seems to be very popular is the
Swedish Pimple. Utilized for catching walleye, trout, coho-salmon,
northern, bass, pan fish, and other species; these lures are touted
to be the most widely used in Sweden. They are made in the US, and
are solid brass. They are rigged with a treble hook and a red
flipper. The lures come in sizes 2 and 4. Size 2: 1/10 ounce and 1
inch long; size 4: 1/4 ounce and 1 3/4 inch long; and size 6: 1/2
ounce and 2 1/4 inch long, respectively. Moreover, the colors
available are: copper; nickel; gold; luminous; flo orange nickel;
flo yellow nickel; hammered silver plated; prism chartreuse; prism
blue; and prism green.
In addition, you can also obtain the following lures as well:
hydro jig; dart finky; sting ray; and glow rocker, to name a few.
The hydro jig has a superior hook. It also has a bait keeper, and
comes in 8 sizes so that you can place the lure at the depth
desired. The dart finky is two-toned with hand-painted eyes, and
glows in the bottom side. It also sits in the water horizontally.
The sting ray is used for vertical jigging. It falls slow in a
semi-circle motion. The glow rocker has a gold hook with two tone
or solid colors, and a glow in the dark back.
Among the most popular is the Jigging Shad Rap. This is a new
vertical jigging lure used around the world. The benefits of the
Jigging Rap, as developed specifically for ice fishing, is that the
Jigging Shad Rap has a more pronounced action, with a slow
circle-down action and raising in a sharp snapping motion will
cause bait to circle faster. A quick vibrating motion can also be
used at fixed depths.
You can find any ice fishing lure on line or at your Bait and
Tackle shop. With so many varieties available, catching that all
important species of fish will be an easy task.
