Absolutely in love with Tingler Spoon

I have to say, I have been amazed by the VMC Tingler Spoon this ice season. I have been a tungsten jig guy for years and even though I carried spoons I never had much confidence in them. This season I put on the 1/16th pink and white Tingler spoon tipped with a waxie, as a search lure. It has quickly gone from search lure to primary lure. It has been one of the best ice seasons for numbers and average size that I have had in years on perch/crappie and even bluegills really love this spoon!! Here is my best crappie so far caught on the tingler a few nights ago at 13 inches with many 11-12 inchers as well which is tough to do with the pressure on the Chetek/Bloomer area lakes. VMC has certainly made me a believer in spoons now!!

I started using the tingler last year with similar results for crappies, and perch.

Nice!

I cant believe how hot this lure has been, I have never had much confidence in spoons, now its a whole new ballgame! lazzer, I use the 1/16th sized spoon, not sure I would want to go much smaller, even smaller panfish will hit it though it does weed most of them out.

I just ordered a few of those as well and am excited to try them out – been having lots of luck so far this year on my tried and true slender spoon…green and gold! Guess our WI fish are Packer fans too

Gonna have to pick up a few of those…Thanks for the info.

i havent fished much anything other than the tingler for the last year. the only time i use anything else is my dead stick and i use a VMC teardrop jig. other than that its tingler tingler tingler!!!!

This spoon has been amazing for us this year here in south Dakota helping with multiple limits of perch
