Pro Tip: The Whippersnap 1" is your secret weapon when fish are ultra-finicky or pressured. Use ultra-light line (1-3 lb test) and slow, subtle movements. In ice fishing, try a barely-there lift-drop-pause cadence. This tiny bait triggers strikes when bigger baits get ignored.
Color Selection: Natural minnow colors (silver, white, pearl, clear) work best in clear water. Use chartreuse, pink, or glow colors for stained water or low light. Glow colors are especially deadly for ice fishing in deep water or low light.
