Title: Hali Jigs
Post by: FrozenJig on Feb 07, 2007, 01:52 PM
I have been hearing that these are "miracle" jigs for quite some time and have finally broke down and bought some.  Has anyone ever used these and does anyone have any helpful tips as to how to effectively use them? Thanks and tight lines

There are alot of strings about Hali jigs...I have not read any of them, but now here is another.

My curiosity is now piqued, and now I will seek them out and see what they have to say.  Who knows, I may, in my infinate cheapness, actually break down and buy some based what I find.....

Money well spent ! If you could see the end of the jigging stix in my pic , thats whats on it ! Gary at the Outdoorsman turned my buddie and myself on to them several years back . I like the perch pattern , or should I say the perch do . Had great success with them on Lake George , tip em with a few spikes and hold on . A few friends have said that while fishing other places that they didnt seem to work as well , but thats the same with any lure .  :tipup:

Hali's are a very specialized perch lure designed for finicky deepwater perch. The are long narrow lead spoons with a tine hook hanging from a short chain at the bottom. Tip the tiny hook with a bunch of spikes or a minnow head. The smaller versions work great for deadsticking live minnows.  The are great for deepwater becasue their heavy weight allows you to get the lure back down to perch. In 45 feet of water it can take FOREVER to get back down when an active school is below you.  They are spendy, but well worth it. They really took off in Devils Lake, North Dakota where the perch a deep, tempermental and well fed.  Corey P

hali`s are excellant,i`m more fond of the nils huaka(probably spelled it wrong)it`s a hali sort but is flarred @ the bottom like a fish tail.(Elongated fish).Blk/gold w/chart glow back,or perch-rainbow color w/same glow back.Buckshot rattle spoons are also fav`s.One of each is always rigged.2/3 spikes for the hali or perch eye,& perch eye for buckshot(both have 1.5" droppers).  ;D :tipup:

I have used Hali Jigs for a while. There tough to use with a very light rod and spring bobber but you can get use to it. I have done very well with a cornacopia of colors as I have about 15 differnt ones. The glow blue in the smallest size has by far been the best for Perch for me tipped with 3 white spikes.

hello fellow ice fisherman. i have used the Hali lures and i really like them.  i have used them also in open water under a properly weighted bobber.  i have caught all species of fish on them. i prefer the larger lures because they also attract fish.  they are pricey.
