better fishing from the other side though unless you have a net. I went there late last fall and saw my pocket changed in that spot, dude I was so mad but it makes for a better bobber hole though.

I like to use eggs in the mornings there, usually does really well. Or on realllly slow days ill use egg. Otherwise at about 11 when its full i switch to corky/yarn so I dont mess up every one elses drifts. Eggs work great there, now if there was just less people ](*,)

tell me about, It is funny watching the bobber boys drift in between the snaggers and then see the bobber just shoot under. I have seen a school of a like 20 jacks and a handful of bigger ones before but forgot my eggs at home, wow I was upset.
