Thank you for the info ChalkCreek. I will have to try this some time. I appreciate the info!

I did the same kind of trip twice in over the last weekend, and the fishing is pretty good. I never had it that fast, but most people around me were catching fish, and I caught maybe 50 from dark to 11:00 one night, sifting the biggest for a limit.
It's a cool little adventure setting up with a lantern for heat in my little tent, and the crappies are willing, but the bite is SO light, you have to look for anything that looks funny, even with a spring bobber. Glowing jigs and perch eyes, waxworms, Crappie nibbles, and sometimes regular worms work.
