Strangely never had much luck with white tube jigs or cold lake specuals in Cold lake.

I also guided Lakers out of northerm Mb and very rarely did anything but jig. Generally size was better avg jigging as well.
awesome...will give them jigging minnows a go...what colors? I find pink/white...blue/white...with tube jigs but what color combo with the gibbs jigs?

got me thinking too about buzz bombs....got a few from the west coast?
