We're getting skunked wherever we go so far. Using short poles with green/chartruese jig heads, tipped with a piece of nightcrawler, meal worm, wax worm and even perch eye. Most of the problem is finding the fish, barely a blip on the fish finder anywhere we go. Been to Mantua 3-4 times (1 rainbow), Hyrum 3-4 times (1 perch), Pineview and Willard once each (not a nibble) and Newton a few times (5 perch in one trip).
Considering we have 5-6 lines in the water all the time, it's a bit frustrating. Anyone care to share some tips with a newbie ice fishers? Are there better set ups I can use to attract fish over? Do those waters just suck this year? Constructive thoughts and suggestions appreciated.
