The first ice outing was an unbelievable success. And I owe it all to the angel eye juniors. I'll be honest, I was very skeptical about everything that people say about them. But I have no choice but to claim them my favorite out of all my arsenal. Out on the lake, I had one bobber with a gemineye, and i was jigging with the other with a forage minnow(my old favorite) The gem eye would bring in a fish every once in a while. As I watched the forage minnow on the vex, I had a lot of lookers but only a few takers. So figured what the heck, I just bought a card of juniors, so I might as well use the little buggers. I threw one on tipped with a minnow, and I no longer had lookers, I had 100% takers. Everyfish that looked at it, took it. Theyd come off the bottom and I would bring it up 4 feet and then drop it and then on the slow rise,......wham! Fish on! For a grand total of 29 wally's. Not bad at all for first ice. I had blast. For all you skeptics take a card of em while they're still on the shelf, YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID.

Biguns, did you find consistent ice conditions on the whole lake? Did you walk out from the North or West access? Were you in the "deepest" water for that lake. I'm just going off of your other post. I know this is a lot of info to give for first ice but I'm just looking for general answers. I had allready planned on fishing that lake this weekend.

I was in 10 feet. On top of a break. The ice is not, i repeat not consistent. I tried to venture across the lake but had to turn around due to thing ice, but I'm happy i had to stay in that area! During the first ice on that lake everybody fishes in that big clump. I chose a spot about 30 yards away. It doesn't last long. I bet there were 25 other guys out there tonight. I went out that dirt road access on the east side. let me know when you're going maybe I'll meet you out there. I'll be out there again tommorow night with my angels ready.

Glad your having some success with your juniors! The day I discovered the ae seniors was much like your experience. I went thru all my jigging spoons and no takers (I carry about 35 different spoons), even my old standbys. Put the angel eye on and I started converting lookers to biters including a couple dandies that I was not expecting to come out of that particular puddle. I'm really looking forward to trying the new glow red glowdevils. I know that they are going to be hot hot hot this winter!! Have fun and be safe on this first ice!! Paul
