My best color so far for icing big gills is homemade.Chartruce green back,white front,with a red dot in the middle.I only use size 12,or 14.And you should see the size of them,when they hit.Spikes for bait,white or red works fine.And my trusty flasher!
Hit the ice for a couple hours this afternoon, Caught alot of fish on a tear drop with a pink front and purple glitter back. Pulled approx. 30 fish, but all were too small. Heading back out in the AM.
