A fun bait that we have been using a lot this ice season, is the Clam Outdoors Pinhead Jigging Mino. The Pinhead Mino was designed to attract finicky feeding panfish and we are finding that it works very well when the feed is on as well.
The weight of this Mino allows it to get back to the school of fish quickly, so that you won’t miss out on any of those bites. It acts as an injured minnow when jigged and there are a few ways of attaching the line to the bait either to enhance the action, or tighten the action as well.
The ways that we are tying the bait are either, directly to the line: which incorporates a tighter action when jigged. Or using a small snap clip or loop knot: which allows the bait to be more freely moving for more of a dancing action and this works well when the feed is on.
Couple of other attractors are the flapper that is between the Mino and treble hook, this moves freely on the split ring for added attraction. Plus, by adding a plastic bait in a variety of shapes and colors, helps for bringing the fish to attacking the setup.
Always is nice having a bait that has a variety of ways for creating the action the fish are looking for at a given time as we all know that the conditions are always changing throughout the day of fishing. The Pinhead Mino allows you to adapt this bait to those changing conditions and in turn, allowing you to keep catching fish as well.
