Lure selection

Williams ice jig hammered gold and silver tip minnow. Set line with split shot, hook, minnow, stinger if you're losing fish. Jig your set line every now and then keep shinner fresh and lively. From 11am till 2pm drink beer listen to music and enjoy life, midday is usual dead keep lines in water obviously you never know. Also like using walleye rigs more hooks up the odds, always fun bringing up more then one fish. Keep lines in the hut down all night with bells no better wake up call. If you hit a weekend when the fish aren't bitting hopefully the companies good.

What size hooks do you use for dead stick?

I use # 6 .

I would agree 100% with the buckshot and forage minnow lures by Northlands. Green is my go to.
A buddy of mine swears by white jig heads.

I picked up some new Buckshot coffin spoons for this season, I can't wait to see the difference between them and the buckshot spoon. I love all the northland ice tackle especially the forage minnow darter jig.

I agree with the buckshots. Generally does pretty well. My all time favorite is still just a white or chartreuse 1/4 oz jig with small minnow. Never fails. I find I've been using smaller and smaller presentations over the years and having greater success.

I would totally agree with you. It seems smaller is better. Not only am I catching walleye but lots of perch.
With that said, am I missing out using bigger lures and bigger bait in hopes of bigger fish ?
Obviously I’d love bigger / keeper fish but love catching numbers of fish in hopes of a doozy

The new coffin spoon

Might have to try one of those bad boys

Great topic and tips!

i use pretty much the same ones: buckshots, jigging raps, vibs, flutter spoons etc and often times dead stick with a minnow seals the deal.

Found this video which may be helpful.
