Oneida Lake BS thread 2011/2012

[Dogger]

Was in looking the new UV Bright patterns for jiggin' wraps today. I never got my first eye on the ice last year, so I'm going to pursue them heavy this year. Any recommendations on size color for the wraps? I was going to go with smaller silver and black but figured I'd ask the forum first before I waste my jing.....

Silver castmaster with a minnow on it. Ive had good luck with glow red for eyes in Oneida.

size 5 or size 7 rapala for oneida with a buckeye head is where I have had my luck on oneida.  I prefer to use a 7 but most seem to prefer the 5.

Im a whatever works guy.  I usually have a rap in one hole and a rattling spoon in the other.

I do the same , or deadstick a live buckeye if perch fishing 

[Dogger]

Thanks for the advise on the size. I'll go with traditional silver and black.... The UV Bright patterns look crazy to me... Can you pick them up with Hali spoons tipped with a buckeye head?

[s10xr]

Never used hali's.  Ive heard they work well

  I got a  jig and a spoon in most of the time with 2 ready to go isn't that right DD 

[H.T.]

ya- i have seen you use a spoon that could knock a sea gull out as it came out of a hole 50 yards away

Ready to go as long as there aint fish on all of em with 10 on the ice heading for the holes

Gander has to hire some real help for the ice fishing dept.  I talked to some clown there today that was telling me that the new uv raps were out last year in the regular jigging rap.  I told him they weren't and he told me he should know he is sponsored by rapala.  ha ha ha.  I told him to look at my rap selection in my box and its weird I dont have one from last year biut have every other color out there.  Oh well whatever.  Then I tried to walk away and it seemed as he wanted to argue a lil with me about it.  I hate people that work in dept and have no clue what there selling. 

[filetandrelease]
