Skandia has added six new hot GLOW colors to their lineup of heavy-hitting Pelkie Tungsten jigs. The new colors will be available in sizes 10, 12, 14, and 16. These jigs aren’t available in stores yet, but we’re assured they’ll be on hand for early season ice. GLIF will keep you posted and let you know when they hit the stores.
Gander Mountain is sporting new ice fishing markdowns right now to get you on the ice today. Plus you can save up to $40 with $5 off every $50 or $10 off every $100 spent on the Gander Mountain website.
However, don’t over look the other panfish species including the Crappie. Experienced ice anglers know this can be one of the best times of year to catch these giant panfish.
With the mild weather keeping many ice anglers frustrated, some fishermen are getting creative to catch their first ice gills. This angler was spotted on a lake in Barry County in a borrowed duck boat and was able to catch a dozen nice bluegills in about half an hour of fishing.
This summer has been a hot one. I was fishing the other day and drove a crossed some bass beds with magnum bluegills on them.
The Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) has announced public forums to be held throughout Michigan this spring, inviting the public to discuss local and statewide fisheries management activities and concerns.
Predicting the start of the ice fishing season on Lake St. Clair used to be fairly easy. But these in-between ice conditions also provide new perch fishing opportunities for anglers willing to make the necessary adjustments.

how did the pelkie and tapiola jigs get their name?
The owner had a childhood cabin near Tapiola Michigan just up the road from Pelkie. The bait company name comes from the town of Skandia Michigan.
Ok.. Curious cause I went to school and lived in tapiola,,Spent my days on otter lake in the summer.
