Ice Fishing with Hair Jigs for Panfish
Use a hair jig on your next ice fishing trip to imitate common panfish food choices like zooplankton and aquatic insects.

Like most anglers, I am always looking for ways to increase the quality and quantity of the fish I catch—a better hook, a new location, a spot within a spot or, in most cases, a new lure.
Lures that revolutionize fishing are relatively rare. A few minutes on the internet produced the Original Creme Wiggler, Floating Rapala, Lunker City Slug-Go, Buel Spoon, Senko, Mepps Aglia, Rapala Jigging Rap, and Ned Rig as game-changers, but I don’t think I would get many arguments about adding hair jigs to that illustrious list. Like many from the inventory above, traditional hair jigs, while innovative, are certainly not new.
