I started using pinheads last winter. I have had my best luck with the blue and white. I have tipped it with wax worms.

 Try it without bait for a bit. Keep the spoon moving slightly so as that little blade by the hook wiggles.  Took me a while to gain confidence in a unbaited spoon.. once I did though,  I  truly believe I upped my panfish game.

Nope...Been having some Heart issues the last week or so.  Taking it easy till after Christmas.  Have buddies that have been out.  Lots of water and slush pretty much everywhere they been.  Need some cold weather to firm things up a bit.

   Hey Rick, Hope your improving fast!!  Been off this site for a few years as was very busy and didn't have much time ... Heading out on the ice after work tomorrow.   Get well soon as have a great pic from when we went out on Lake Shakopee 3 or more years ago of you holding a nice Eye as you were fishing for pannies.   Take care

I am hoping the custom rod I ordered will be done this week or so. 32 inch black ice from Kichler Custom I will post pictures once I get it. 
 

I bought 7 pinhead pro 1/32 oz jigging spoons. 
 

I got the old man a bigger drill for his auger as his 14 volt was not cutting the mustard. I got him the dcd999 with 6 amp flexvolt battery. He wanted the same drill I had, so that is what I got him. 
 

next up I just need to get on the ice. I might have to see if the St. Cloud guys will let me tag along one of these days.

Let's see some pics of the new pole....

 

  I'll see if I can find pics of the new ones I'm using this year...I can't afford those fancy custom rods....I use homemade ones😏

I you haven't tried or heard of them, Lake Effect Lures out of Michigan makes really good tungsten jigs for ice fishing. I ordered these recently and I am really impressed with the quality of the hooks and paint schemes
