Built on the same chemically sharpened #12 jig hook and paired with a heavy 4.6mm tungsten bead just the other ice bug varieties. The feathered collar flares out underwater and looks irresistible to fish. Also, the buggy nature of this bait makes it look like an easy and wholesome snack for lethargic winter panfish and perch. If you were to only use one ice jig the rest of your life, this should be the one! It's that good!
