2" power bait question

[ilovehardwater]

Well after checking Wally World,Scheels,Gander Mtn., asking every sales person in every store none had the 2" power minnows. I finally found them 6 blocks away from my home at the Bobber Shop, silly me but my question is what types/sizes/colors of jigs do ya use with these?. I purchaced a few jigs that looked like crappie minnow heads with small blades attached, was also thinking of getting a bunch of 1/8 and 1/16 jigs. Please help me out guys, Thanks BT

Collerless jig heads work best, in the 1/32 oz size.

I like the 1/32oz but if he fish want a realy slow fall I will opt for something smaller. If I am fishing deep I will use the 1/16oz.

As far as colors go I like to start with white and/or glow and change up from there. However, I seldom use any other colors.

For the style jig heads collarless work better but if you find the jigs with smaller collars they will work fine. I really like jigheads that look similar to a minnow head. Bass Pro shops has one of my favorites which is called "Luck "E" Strike Guppy Jighead". The barb can be removed easily if needed. There are other brands that work well but that style jighead makes the bait dance and look alive.

Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.

Good fishing,

I fish them with several jigheads but they are all collarless and run 1/32-3/32 oz. It all depends on how the fish are snapping and how deep you're using them.

I like glow, chartruese, white/chartruese and smelt. But by far the glow gets the most time in the water.

The Little Atom Optic jig works very well with these plastics in the sizes mentioned above. Its collarless and has a longer shank. Works great.

If you are really struggling to find a jighead, buy some Custom Jigs & Spins Ratsos in the larger sizes, take the Ratso plastic off and put on the Power Minnow.

The #6 size works very well when they are aggressive. Go to the #8 if the bite is lighter.

If I understand you correctly they have the 2" in glow???

[Corey Bechtold]

Glow/Chart to be exact. The tails have the Chartreuse while the body is Glow. These work great for dirty water.

Good luck,

Glow/Chart is probably one of my favorite colors through the ice. Seems to be pretty versatile. Also can't complain about the natural minnow colors like the smelt or even rainbow, both work well. The rainbow is more of a blueish color, but works will under the ice...
