That sounds like a great idea.

I just picked some of the Pink/White colored ones up. I'll let you know how I do after the weekend!

Did that in Oregon on diamond lake. Both caught fish but worms performed better.

I've tried it for a couple of seasons with no success through the ice; however, 3-4" Gulp minnows off the bottom at ice out? Lights out!

I have good luck them in open water, not so much under the ice. I may try some smaller sizes this year and see if that helps.

I did extensive side by side testing with Smelly Jelly and maggots many years ago and found no difference in catch rate or size of fish. This was mainly on bluegill and largemouth. I used small Berkley gulp minnows last winter at Vega when the bite turned off and still caught fish. Why deal with maggots in the cold when you can use artificial baits.
