When it comes to ice fishing, everyone has an opinion on what works best to catch a fish. Some people may even have rituals they perform before they even hit the ice to ensure that they bring home great catches. So, to help you out with your next ice fishing trip – without having to do some kind of weird fish dance to conjure up a few crappies or walleyes – here's a quick and easy tip.

When ice fishing, try using the lightest line you can. One or two pound test line is usually all it takes to catch fish like bluegills and crappies. If you're fishing for walleyes or a larger fish, then you'll most likely want to look at using 4 to 6 pound test.

By using lighter line, your jig will be able to get more action and you'll be able to detect lighter strikes, which in turn, makes you more likely to catch something. You can also think about using hi-visibility fishing line as well, as it may better indicate how a fish is interacting with your lure.
