« on: Jan 10, 2022, 09:45 AM »
Can anyone help me identify this jig?
It had wings that were glued on the top and a glow sparkly bottom.

Yep it's the hexi fly popular for several reasons, it has a great sonar return, it has a gliding action with a slower fall rate than other jigs its size. But they are hard to find nowadays. The Lindy Bug jig and the Northland Gill Getter are similar and are both somewhat easier to find. They both have similar qualities with the Lindy Bug having that sparkly underbelly you mentioned.

Yes, it is Northland Hexi Ice Jig. Two suppliers are Amazon and Sportsmans Guide.  Goggle Northland Hexi Ice Jig and you will see more suppliers.
