I have a jar of waxies I'm dying to try. For $7, these better be the most awesome thing ever.

Have you seen the leaches and minnows? Those things are like $30.

the minnows worked awesome for vertical jigging this spring/summer. extremely durable, caught five fish per minnow on L.O.W. I cant wait to use them on the ice, just don't let them dry out they turn to rock.

I was so happy with them I didn't buy minnows for vertical jigging. actually cheaper, considering minnows cost six dollars a dozen, on the canadian side of L.O.W.

Beem using the waxies for the last 5 trips on the ice and am very happy with the results on crappies. I have had very few fish on the vex not take the bait.

This is the first that I have tried them and will continue to use them as an option.
