The 18 PACK – Tungsten Jigs (6mm, 8 Hook) is a great choice for targeting walleye, crappie, and perch while ice fishing. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and benefits:
Key Features:
✔ Tungsten Construction – Denser than lead, allowing for a faster sink rate and better sensitivity.
✔ 6mm Size – Ideal for finicky winter bites, perfect for small-mouth species like crappie and perch.
✔ 8 Hook – A fine, sharp hook that ensures solid hooksets on light-biting fish.
✔ 18-Pack – Provides variety and spares for multiple setups or lost jigs.
Best Uses:
– Walleye: Tip with a minnow head or soft plastic for a subtle presentation.
– Crappie: Pair with a waxworm or small plastic for vertical jigging.
– Perch: Use with spikes or tiny minnows for aggressive jigging.
Why Tungsten?
– Sensitivity: Transmits bottom structure and light bites better than lead.
– Compact Size: Delivers weight in a small profile for finesse presentations.
– Eco-Friendly: Many anglers prefer tungsten over lead due to environmental concerns.
Ice Fishing Tips:
– Jigging Cadence: Lift and drop gently to trigger strikes.
– Color Selection: Bright colors (glow, pink, chartreuse) for stained ice, natural tones (black, green) for clear water.
– Depth Adjustment: Fish just off the bottom for perch/walleye, mid-column for crappie.
