    Hey Everyone,

    Curious what seem to be your jig/spoon, etc, colors of choice when ice fishing? Regardless of water clarity. What seems to be the color(s) you are always reach for?

    Walleyes?
    Panfish?
    Pike?

    Thanks!

    Pink. Always my #1 go-to color on the ice, regardless of where i’m fishing or what i’m fishing for.

    I like sticking to greens and browns, but color selection can vary day-to-day. I try to match my presentation to what the specific species might be eating.

    I like to start with pink and white for panfish and firetiger for pike.

    Panfish: White and pink for sure
    Pike: reds and greens
    Walleye: Clown colors, Golds, and chartreuse

    noob here- do you match the plastic to the jig color or mix n match?

    i picked up the “pro pack” by panfish plastics with all the colors so i’m set on colors- just not sure what jigs to be using.

    I do up some collar-less ball head jigs in 1/64 and 1/80 using #8 and #10 hooks respectively. For color I let the plastic take care of it unless I want a glow head and I do a few of green and red glow for those.
