I tie all my own ice jigs and they all resemble my flies from trout fishing. My most productive jig this year has been a #10 beadhead midge!

i usuly use a fly i tie on a 10 hook with a bit of wax worm on it with a small split shot about 10 inches above it, i jig this and it is good for all pan fish.

ended up coming in third in the panfish 23 to 20 to 19. my dad had the twenty..did alright on a little gitzit plastic forgot that i had my flies with me but ill try to remember to use them next time. missed the pickerel of a lifetime tho would of easily went 5 or 6 pounds he broke the line as soon as his nose broke the water and i went in to my shoulder trying to get him oh well maybe next time
