Ok this is my first year ice fishing and I need some help. I see lots of post for differnt walleye lures but here is my question. What size and wieght should I use for each specific lure? I need to get some lures and being a newbie I can not afford to spend a ton of $$$. Please give me some specific examples of some go to lures. If you only had two lures to use to fish for walleyes what would they be?

Example: Swedish Pimple Size: Wieght: Color: Tiped with:

Thank You, Not trying to steal secrets just trying to not spend a million $$$ and hoping to have a chance at catching a fish. 

Hi!
My name is Art and this will be my first year ice fishing. I live just over the PA line and I just found this site thanks to "Oldsailor". Anyway I was transfered here from KS and I have never had the chance to ice fish and I have a ton of questions. But here is my first one.

I have done a ton of soft water fishing. I have a lot of tub and other jigs like stingers from southern pro for crappie. Will these work through the ice for crappie or perch? They work in soft water but what about in the winter? I am guessing the smaller 1.5 inch versions? How about walleyes? or small twisters or crappie or perch?

I have seen and read about the special ice plastics and have a few from C&S spins but not many. But a guy can't aford to spend a ton of money to buy all this stuff. At least I can't and still eat. LOL I get my gear by doing odd jobs to earn extra money so the Mrs. and Kids don't go with out. And Momma don't beat me up. LOL

I was just wondering what you guys thought.

Hello,

My name is Art and I just moved here from KS. I have never had the chance to ice fish before. I love to fish so I figure hey ice fishing has to be great too!! I worked all summer and saved up to get me a flasher and some beginners jigs and gear.

I would like to meet some guys who would not mind taking a new guy out and at least showing me some of the ropes. I live in Western PA about 2 miles from East Liverpool OH. But am willing to travel to fish when work permitts me too. I mostly just don't want to fall in, drownd, and learn the basics. I don't want to be a nuisance to you just a new friend. Perhaps there is something I could help you out with down the road??
