Season's Ice fishing thoughts

[SkunkedAgain]

I'd second Kent's Maniac Cut'r bugs 1.5" in crazy glow orange... 1/16 oz vertiglo head, catches fish at 90+% of locations I fish, whether pan-fish or trout....If I could only have one lure... That would be my go to lure... followed closely by the tungesten gold tear drop in 1/32 oz size for when I need to down size the presentation... Probably caught most of my fish on those two lures, but then again I have confidence in them so I fish them often too...  I'd also put a big thumbs up for a good ff... Mine went down during the heart of the season and I've never missed one so much as I did this year... Hard to fish blind after you're used to having eyes on the prize...  I did find the camera can be a good crutch when your main finder is down, but they do have limitations... Oh, I'd give the bubble box keeping my holes ice free a vote for supporting actor of the year and the jigging jaw jacker probably deserves a nod as well...Later J
