Any lures can be used when it is not frozen over! I have taken the world's smallest lipless crankbait and used it to fish in a few ponds where as most folks would use this lure for ice fishing!
The results were suprisingly great as I have caught a # of different species. Key is to tie a loop knot since it doesn't have a split ring (video said split shot, wrong term lol). The split ring would make this lure a tad bit heavier tho if you want that. This lure weighs in at 1/16 oz, perfect for UL tackle fishing!
Here is the video:
