About the Ice Spoon

A small jigging spoon designed for vertical presentation through the ice. The flutter action on the fall perfectly imitates a dying baitfish, and the flash draws fish in from a distance. Heavier than tungsten jigs, ice spoons reach deeper water and are the go-to when targeting walleye and lake trout through the ice in 20+ feet. Aggressive jigging cadence to attract, then slow down when fish show on electronics.
