RE: Ice Fishing Jigs
Small to med spoons and trout jigs with wax worms or maggots on the hooks work great for trout. As for how deep depends where they are. Start 1 foot off the bottom and work your way up until you find the strike zone. But 90% of the time they are just off the bottom. You should jig your rod constantly.
