I hear that the 360 spoon is pretty awesome ... based on Lindy. Anyone try this or anything else this winter?

Posted

I bought a 360 spoon last year. Unless I was doing it wrong, all mine did was twist my line up. It didnt seem to spin like the commercials said it did.

Same here

Good info -- a buddy had a couple -- I might stick with the flyer and the buchshot and see.

What about on the dead stick.

Hitman don't you have enough tackle already? I've been using those rattlin flying spoons to have mixed results. Good flash and brings the fish in but not much glow for after hours.

Same with the other comments... All hype. Lindy seems to do a good job coming out with the "new hot jig" every year

If you can find them, get the pink ultra light rippin rap from Rapala. Didn't take that lure off all weekend and the fish just crushed it. I didn't tip it with anything and even when I had it resting while making a sandwich the fish came up and hit it.

Great stuff.

Thanks

Over New Years we had some luck using the glass eyes on a dead stick with a lively shiner. They were available at all three bait shops we went to,they look funny but they worked!

That 360 spoon is terrible, nice concept but don't work. Every year I buy a couple dozen new "lucky" lures for ice fishing and always end up going back to the ol' trusties. Rattlin Flyers, red glow with rattle, and jig-o-bits tipped with frozen shiner heads. Dead sticks with red or glow red hooks seem to work well too.

Anyone committed to open water jigs in the winter?

Yes. Don't over think it.

      i'm going to be there for a couple of weeks, will have facilities but I'm more than likely to be doing just  catch and release so don't mind what i catch.

      Well, we had our first one in over a year.  I didn't think anyone would be interested in stem cell research so he went away!

      Welcome to the FM site. Lot of questions that would be helpful, to help you. How long are you staying? If only a few days and you have the money a local guide is going to be your best bet to get on fish.  Are you just doing catch and release or are you going to have a place to clean and cook fish?   In the Red river your more then likely going to target catfish. Hopefully a few of our members who live out that way can chime in on some cat fishing setups or spots.  Good luck.

      I am visiting from the UK to the Moorhead area in the coming weeks and would like to do some fishing while there.  I am trying to find info about what is available to me. I have a variety of gear that i could bring, but am a little restricted by weight limits on the flight. I understand the red river of the north is close by and as the land of 10000 lakes, I am sure there are plenty to fish in.  I appreciate that I will need a local license and I understand I can get this on-line. I would welcome any tips regarding locations and fishing tackle required in this area. I am happy to fish from the shore.  I have also searched for guides in the area but with little success, again and info would be welcome.  Thanks

      That's a wrap on my ice season, have to head back to the cities for a while. Fished the last 3 nights and we managed to get a handful of crappies every night. Here's some pictures over the last 3 outings. Cool fog over the lake tonight. Kept a few for a meal.

      I started going to Haydays when I moved to Blaine in the mid-80's.  Waldoch was very convenient from Blaine.  I quit going for several years when they moved it to North Branch.  I've gone there the last 3 years and like the new layout better.  Parking and admission has gotten very pricey but the event offers a lot to do and see.  Now that I moved up north, Princeton would probably be further for me than North Branch, but maybe I will give it a try.

      I to started out at the haydays back when it was at Waldoch.  I went to the Haydays last fall for the first time in about 6 years, only because my grandsons wanted to see the "C-Boys" some U-tub clowns that trash stuff on U-tube.  Two hours in line to see these clowns!  Not me I sat in a UTV for sale at a stand as they were in line! 😆  I use go every fall to Princeton-Outlaws, Anoka-Rum river runners at the Anoka fairgrounds and once in a while the very small swap at the Brainard fair grounds.  I can't even remember all the stuff I bought over the years for snowmobile, 4 wheelers, and dirtbikes.  🤪

      haydays has become to commercialized now. We started going in the early 90's. Now there is way too may people. I'm there for the swap. I don't have snowmobiles anymore but when the kids were young we had 5 cats from the 90's. We bought a lot helmets, suits and parts there. Now the boys can buy and fix there own sleds. Maybe this year we will check out the outlaw drag this year.

      Haydays can be fun but some times a picker nightmare to get in and out of.  I like the Outlaw grass drag and swap meet in Princeton,  MN a few weeks before Haydays.  If you don't find it there you can always then check Haydays.  I've found must everything I ever needed at the Outlaws swap!
