Panfish / BluegillTechniqueIce Fishing JigsSeasonIceStructureOpen Water/BasinThe day started out slow and by the end it was very productive. Highs in the upper 20's and partly sunny. We set up on a basin for bluegills in about 20' of water. Using Kenders tungsten with clam soft plastics we found some decent gills. They seemed to get bored of the colors after a while so we would rotate colors and it seemed to produce quite well. We also had a couple northerns on tip ups throughout the day. Rotating the colors seemed to be the key though as the school moved in and out mid morning to mid afternoon.

Drill a lot of holes and be willing to move, once you find them they don’t move much and tend to be aggressive.
