Salmon on Jigs??
TroutKing:
I was wonder if anyone could give me any pointers on catching landlocked salmon on artificial lures through the ice. There's a couple of lakes here in Maine where you can fish for them with artificial lures only (no tipping with bait) but I don't have a clue where to fish for em, what to fish with, or how to jig for em. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Buddy of mine caught (and released) a nice salmon a couple weeks ago on Winni (in NH) on a swedish pimple (tipped with worm), jigging about a foot off of bottom in about 20-22 fow. Probably not much different without the worm.
Pasquatch:
Most landlocks are more like 5 feet under the ice here in Lake George, New York. We fish with tipups mostly, so I can only guess what to jig with. My guess would be a Swedish Pimples.

That's weird. Kingfisher, you do agree that salmon are topwater level fish?
