Targeting bucketmouths through the ice? Think spoons

I learned this one in grade school: The fork says to the spoon, “Who was that ladle I saw you with last night?” The spoon replies, “That was no ladle, that was my knife.”
Honestly, an elderly ice fisherman repeated that joke while the Frozen Chozen shivered on a thickened lake. The only thing that prevented us from giving him a cold bath was our compassion and the fact that the lake’s largemouth were going crazy for the spoons we jigged. While that may have been the dumbest lead I’ve ever written, spoons are a truly viable lure for catching iced-in bass.
