  I got this really awesome plastic thing called a keeper deluxe that has a comfy seat and lots of storage.  It has rod storage in the back and seems really solid.  I'll try to post a picture of it. 

There is a few pictures of the keeper deluxe here----> http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=13571.msg114537#msg114537

I bought some new shrimpos, ratsos, nuclear ants, and demons. I wish they carried lindy little joe jigs around here, then I could get genz worms, frostees, and fat boys. I am buying a new frabill sensive rod that looks and feels great for panfish and is only $14. I think those frabill rods probably are the best less expensive rods, quality wise you can buy. I wish I could find bigger rat finkees and demons though around here. Might have to order these things from the net.
I couldn't see the bro bug, there was no pic. Do you have a pic of it?

Those look pretty sharp, I have seen them in In Fisherman before I think. They look kinda like a hybrid between a rat finkee and a genz worm. But dang, with all the great choices that lindy little joe, northland, custom jigs and spins and others have out, sometimes it's dang hard to choose a jig. They catch fishermen but they all catch fish and have a niche. Panfish and trout would probably love those bro bugs, tipped with a waxy, mealie, maggie, crawler piece, or fish eye.

For crappies I usually start with a fat Boy, and if they are fussy with that I switch to the bro right away. It is a very good hook for the finicky crappies.
