Last Sunday morning in church while listening to the preacher I started "doodling" on my note pad and as usual it was about ice fishing and something a fellow was telling me a couple of weeks ago about using tube jigs for crappies in the last few weeks of ice fishing.
I went home and got a small tube jig and threaded my 2# mono on to a needle which I then pushed thru the front of the tube jig and out the back thru the "tentacles" of the jig .
I left about 8" of line out below the jig and put a small pinch on split shot on the line and pulled it up inside the tube kind of like a carolina rig in reverse.
Then I tied a small dropper hook on the line 3'' below the jig.We don't have ice right now to try it but it sure looks enticing in a 5 gallon bucket. I tied several of them up and can't wait to try them. If any of you guys like the idea and try it let me know how it works for you.
