Loads Of New Ice Fishing Lures Steve Ryan - January 23, 2014 This season, the ice fishing crowd can expect an impressive array of new ice fishing lures: jigs, softbaits, and hardbaits from new and old players alike. Pioneering manufacturers in the ice-fishing equipment industry have also joined the tackle market with ice jigs, spoons, and rigs. The rage today is tungsten — a metal about 70 percent denser than lead — with most all companies offering a line of jigs featuring this heavy, fast-sinking metal. And bling is in, too, with faceted gems adorning more lures. Classic spoons also have received new custom finishes and design overhauls. ice-fishing-ammo
