Pucker Factor -  A zero to ten scale indicating how comfortable or uncomfortable an individual is with the condition of the ice while walking or driving on the surface.  Completely relaxed = zero pucker factor.  Extremely tensed = pucker factor of ten.

They've covered most but here's a few.

Bull - Big gills with "shoulders" (wide across the back) and a "forehead" (kinda hump above the eyes of big gills).

Jalopy - another name for large yellow perch sometimes called "Jumbo's".

Jigging methods I believe they were coined by Dave Genz (sometimes called the "Founder of Modern Ice Fishing")

Pounding - a nervous jiggle of the hand on the rod that produces minute movements of the jig under water.

Jiggle - a little harder pounding (see above) that produces greater movement of of the jig underwater.
up above  I say it was me  with to much coffee in me 
Pause - holding the rod still so the jig remains still under water.

Jigging Sequence - pound - pause - pound - jiggle - pause


smile it makes others wonder what your up to

Ye Old Big Hammer   you use the rite tool for the rite job   when in dout ye old big hammer

when you catch a fish (often walleye or perch) from deep water (more than 35 feet) the swim bladder can expand and push our their mouth a little.  we say "his airbag went off"
