south_metro_fish Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I have been doing some reading up on ice fishing walleyes and other fish, and I had a couple articles talk about using Reef Runner's Cicadas during the hard water season. It sounds like they give off good vibrations and flash when jigged. Anyone ever give these a try on hard water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Horn Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I have caught bass and perch with them. I don't see why walleyes wouldn't eat them. The vibration is awesome. Just be careful while jigging, lower the lure and line at the same pace. It will tangle in the hooks other wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popriveter Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I've used them as an attractor for panfish. The have a very hard vibration and call fish in. I get bites on them, but usually catch my fish when I drop a jig down after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stringerless! Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I use the same type of lure called a Zip. I take the hooks right off it. Just use it as an attractor. When things get slow I drop it down and rip the { bad word) out of it ! It sure does seem to call fish in of all kinds. Does not mean they will bite but they sure come to see what the commotion is.I had a big one (about 5 inches) that I lost and have been looking for another for a few years now.

hovermn Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Try Red Rock. They used to have a wide size variety of them. I seem to remember seeing some huge ones, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
