I don't recall ever hearing of so many guys going through this early in the season, at least here in Indiana. I've ice fished for a long time, but my ice this year just looks strange....I'm not sure how to explain it.

Yeah sight fishing is both informational, as well as maddeningly frustrating. I'll be so engrossed in trying to tempt that fish that I find myself holding my breath. It's quite the learning experience, in regards to presentation tactics and the ability of a BG to suck in your bait and spit it back out in a nanosecond.....


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
