I paint all my sinkers for ice fishing Dipping in rust-oleum works well for me. Also I have been adding marabou to my hooks. I don't if it helps but it does not hurt

Hey Jim, we're in the middle of a snowstorm up here--supposed to get up to possibly 6-8 inches by tomorrow morning...I hate this weather cause the ice is dangerous for fisning right now as we've had a series of warm days last couple of weeks...I'm itchin to get out!!! Hope those monster slabs start turnin on for you--they will!!!

Actually tried crappie fishing this past Weds and drew a blank with 34 F air and 38 F water temps and light snow. Got some big slabs last year under those conditions but we have had a series of cold fronts and the fish haven't turned on yet. Hopin to get out onr evening this week if weather co-ops.
Hay guys, U should check out Northland Fishing Tackle. They have some interesting jigs, bottom rigs, floats, splitshot. All are in bright colors.

I've had luck with 1/64 or smaller jigs tipped with waxies or mealworms on either 4 lbs or 2 lbs test line (go with 2 lbs for ultra clear water and/or heavily pressured Gills)!!! No doubt the Gulp would act as a great scent additive as well just as Jim recommended!!
