All ice fishing lures carry my personal gaurantee!

If you are not successful in catching fish after giving them a fair test (using the methods described for each lure) I invite you to come visit during ice fishing season and I will personally teach you how to consistently catch fish on my jigs.

The Geno jig earned it's place in the tackle box of riverside bait & tackle owner Bob Haberkorn when he took 2nd and 3rd place bluegill in the Cassville Snowmobile club 2005 fisheree in January.(approx 100 anglers fishing Bertom lake(mississippi backwater)

The jig got it's name from my father in law gene who was reluctant to use my jigs until the day I pulled out 13 nice gills 2 feet from his 20 year old standby lavender teardrop with spike.(mine had no bait )

The Geno can be fished with or without bait. It consists of a 1/64th oz. jig, glow in the dark tube, and multi colored iridescent bead. Not sure why it works but may return your investment in your next tournament.

These 2 jigs, The Glow Flip, and the Diamonite, will help you catch those slow fish that are moving.

Both jigs use large flashy surfaces to draw inquisitive fish close. Using long (6"-10") strokes near the bottom will bring fish from light penetration distance away. Once there are several (5+) fish eyeballing the jig(usually takes 30sec jigging) start a slow bouncing (1/2 -1") jig upward. Sometimes they hit on 1st couple jigs up, sometimes they follow it all the way to the bottom of the hole and take it just before it gets out of reach.

The theory behind this technique is that a pack of dogs will grab a bone thrown in the pen much more reliably than a single dog.

The Damm lure was a stroke of pure laziness. I was making up prototypes to test a couple years ago and ran out of fancy element combinations in my imagination. I decided to work on testing color's actual effect on fishes willingness to bite. I happened to have numerous colors of small round beads.so I made a couple 4 bead and a treble hook prototypes. Figuring that I could easily try individual or combinations of colors using this method I added the treble hook to increase bite/hook ratio.

Off I went to a cut above Schleicher's landing. There were 2 gentlemen I saw catching some crappies. I approached them and asked if I could use one of their holes. They very generously agreed. Idropped a chartreuse damm lure down thwe hole and proceeded to pull 4 nice slabs around 13" -14". within the next 15 minutes I had 11 more crappies on the ice.

Gary and Andy Hampton, the guys who had so gratiously allowed me to encroach in their holes named the damm lure. They now both own some damm lures.

.The Morphadite was my 1st successful jig innovation. After several years of using jigs with flipper blades I decided to invent my own. I wanted to incorporate size, flash, color, and movement. The main body is a rhinestone faceted oval bead with a flat mirror back. the flipper is a small plastic fish. originally I attatched snap swivels (this picture) at the top. The newer style have a glow in the dark tube on the hook shank and small snap at the top. These come in 2 body sizes 9/16" and 3/4". While they are designed for crappies even small bluegills will peck at the flipper. The real success of this lure is the combinatio of big flash to draw the fish and flipper movement to get them to bite. The featherlight flipper flutters with much less jigging than jigs with metal flipper blades.

The Bottom line: Give me a call or send me an email. Jigs are available in many colors. Cost of each is $1 . 1 free with every 5 purchased. I will also custom design a lure to meet your ice fishing conditions. All jigs carry my personal gaurantee. Try one if you fail to catch fish when others are bring yourself and the jig to visit and we'll go fishing. If we don't catch fish on it I'll give you several different jigs that do..

THE NITTY BITTY

This jig catches them on the slow bite, when only a small lure will work. No bait required. just lightly jig from the top down.

Note pictures of 7 1/2 -8 1/2" gills taken during preliminary testing !!!!
