The initial picture is of ice fishing jigs. I think they are being used on Carl Blackwell during the winter on the dock.

Today's fish were all 38' deep. I fish the spoon with a G-Daddy jig above it about 18". I use different colors on the jig but today the color didn't really matter. I think the spoon works well just because of its weight and I feel it better at the depths I am fishing (between 38' and 50'). Basically it's a deep water setup. I use a much lighter flutter spoon in warmer water. I found that putting a little glitter in the final finish seems to help along with the mini Colorado blade and swivel. I probably gave more information than was actually being asked.

I rig the upper jig a little different than most. First; I am using braided line with a barrel swivel tied to the end and a 3' piece of 8 pound mono on it and a snap swivel on the end of the mono. The snap swivel is so I can change the spoon if conditions call for it. Before I put the swivel on the braided line I pass the line thru one end of a smaller swivel, this second swivel is for the upper jig which will be tied to a 6" piece of 8 pound line. The purpose for the second swivel is so the upper jig can slide up and down the braided line without resistance. This serves two purposes. If you are lucky enough to catch two fish at a time this prevents one of the fish from breaking off from pulling opposite directions on a knot it also keeps you from losing two lures if you get the bottom lure hung up in brush or rocks. If you use to long a line on the upper jig you will have problems with the upper jig getting tangled. I use no heavier than a 1/16 oz jig for the upper jig. Works for me. I caught a total of 54 crappie on this configuration yesterday.

I went to Arbuckle lake yesterday as a guest with one of my fishing buddies. I had not fished there before so it was fishing new water for me. We caught about 25 yesterday with only 7 of them being keepers. The crappie were a lot thinner than Texoma crappie. We also tripped over a school of Sand Bass just before we left and put a dozen real nice Sandies in the box in just a few minutes. It was fun but I must admit I am a bit spoiled with Texoma crappie.

George, they are now being used all over the eastern part of the state, as well as Ft. Cobb. One guy from Grove sold 300 of them in one day last winter. Three days ago, a guy sold some at Claremore Lake. Most of the people there were already using the spoon/jigs.Originally Posted by cricket george

Pretty easy to make. All you need is some willow leaf blades, mall light wire hooks and a soldering iron. That way you can paint them any color you want. Lot of fun to make your own and then go catch fish on them.
