Looks like I gave you some with the 60 degree bend.  The 90 degree bend is even better for keeping the bait horizontal.  The next set will be 90's.  Glad the work as well down there as they do up here!

Hoosier,

Question about the 'front yard'.....is it a bay off of a larger lake or a big pond / small lake that you are fishing?  Whatever it is, something is 'right' in there by the size of the fish you are pulling out of there.  Those crappies are huge and the gills and redear are above average in size too.

I met up with Hoosier again today to do some more Front Yard Fishin'.  He got out about 10AM and I got there at 2PM.  He had a couple of small ones and the fishing had been tough.  We fished until dark and ended up with a dozen and a half between us with just one Crappie.  (I had four of the dozen and a half.  LOL)  Here is a pic of my catch:



Didn't get any pictures of Hoosiers fish.

Thanks again JT for getting me on the ice and some good fish!
