Ice Fishing
2-Spots are an excellent shallow water choice, particularly sizes 12 and 10. Fish 2-Spots with a single maggot (spike) or waxworm when fishing is tough, or multiple spikes when the fish are aggressive. 2-Spot sizes 8 and 6 work deeper and can be tipped with multiple spikes (try five or six all the way up the hook shank). The 2-Spot size 6 is quite effective with small shiner minnows for crappie on a dead stick rod. Remember to change depths often as crappie can sometimes be caught right up under the ice!
Open Water
The 2-Spot size 6 is a top open water producer. Its light wire hook will accept live bait like minnows and waxworms without tearing. Drift fishing 2-Spots 18 to 24 inches behind a BB split shot is a great way to catch bluegill, perch and crappie.
