hey joco,
The very best nymph for me has been the bead head hares ear. I don't know if it works well ice fishing, but it definitly does on the soft water. Perch,sunfish,little bass and trout loove it :wink: For crappie try one with a chartreuse body.
good luck joco,
mike

JoCo: Try the wooly bugger. A classic pattern in all sizes and very easy to fish. For jigging the clouser minnow might work, and large stonefly nymphs could work.

Tie them up, if u dont ice fish with then they will work at le Ruisseau de la Brasserie.

Joco,

You might also consider trying some epoxy buzzers.
