[QUOTE="Casey Buchholz, post: 309611, member: 521"] I used to work night shift at bobcat down in Gwinner. I liked to go fishing in the mornings after work but had issues keeping minnows from freezing over night. I started using artificial baits and can honestly say that there have been many times since that chubby darters and spoons with dressed trembles have out fished live bait in both quality and quantity. Walleye, pike, and perch were always my targeted species. I have since broadened my selection of lures. I like many different rattle baits, spoons, and even some soft plastics. Color tends to depend on water clarity and species targeted. I feel that rattle type baits shine during active feeding periods while fluttering or swimming actions tend to entice lethargic fish to strike. The best advice I could give if you are interested in artificial lures for ice fishing is to buy a few of the popular baits and work them at different cadences either under electronics or in a large spear hole. You will see how the fish react to your bait and get a better feel on what makes them strike. [/QUOTE]
