Indeed, last winter, I broke out an old orange-and-gold foil pattern Jigging Rap I purchased from Dave Cook's Sporting Goods in Denver, Colorado, around 1979, and caught my biggest walleye of the season. And even after all this time, walleyes in most icy environs still also react aggressively to a #7 Jigging Rap. Schmidt: 'There's something satisfying about still being able to tie on the same magical silver-blue Do-Jigger I used 25 years ago to catch walleyes.

Cory Schmidt has been writing about ice fishing for decades and is a longtime In-Fisherman field editor. We asked three noteworthy members of the ice community to make their choices. That's actually 11 top choices, but he included the two PK items together as one. His choices were (in no particular order of preference) the Acme Kastmaster, Custom Jigs & Spins Slender Spoon, Jig-A-Whopper Rocker Minnow, Northland Forage Minnow, PK Flutter Fish & PK Spoon, Nils USA Hali, Williams Nipigon, Rapala Jigging Rap, Nils Master Jigging Shad, and Livetarget Golden Shiner. He focused on lures for larger predatory fish: walleyes, pike, bass, lake trout.
