NICE !
I don't have any experience with the wind socks but am looking forward to the fish coming shallow. Sounds like the front pushed them back off at the moment.
Got the better half fired up over spring crappie fishin' in shallow water. She hates the deep water stuff that I prefer. Hope to get some fishin' in before the 'THUNDER-CHICKENS' get fired up but I've already seen struttin' action a time or two in fields on the way to work
