Hey Chaunc, don't look now, cause the cold is coming. I can't wait!
Nice spoons Crappieday!!!!
Looks really good! Keep up the good work.
Bob, i'm going to miss it again this season. Having surgery on this same shoulder real soon. Dr. says he can fix it, so i'm gonna get-r-done.Quote:

I bet they would also work good in the spring on yellow perch.
Thank you for your order, looks like we might get a chance to try them in the ice if this weather keeps up.lol Hope you enjoy those sickle hooks, They are sharp
crappieday, Have you tried to make any with jig head hooks so they hang in a horizontal position ? I have the best luck through the ice with horizontal jigs.By doing this they might glide out,rock back and forth or even fall real slow.You might even be able to get a much slower fall by flipping the blades over with the dish facing down. Just some thoughts here nothing wrong with the ones you already have there ;) .
I am 1 step ahead of ya:D I posted this awhile back but had 0 interest, but I was thinking along the same lines as you for a horizontal presentation.

I like the looks of that one!
Not able to do a lot of ice fishing due to shoulder problems but i've caught 25 fish in three trips out. 19 of them were caught with the green beadhead microspoon with the black bead. Even got a small walleye with it. Going to erie in the morning and i'm taking my digital camera this time.
good luck and have a safe trip. dont over do it on your shoulder
Got the electric auger to drill my holes with.:D I'm way to old to drill holes by hand on 12" ice. Strikemaster Electra 12000 lazer, 8" hole. Can put the vex and line in the same hole with no problem.Quote:
