Back in the day , this was my method . Bet we could take up a collection to help fill your freezer. Just don't know how we'd get them fillets to ya.

If you can't see the minner it's too deep!!!
6" back in the day for me, or less. Everyone in my area does this, and they all catch loads of fish. I don't get much of a thrill out of it anymore, so it's a thing of the past for me. But I did enjoy it in the past. WHen I'm jigging for spawners on cypress trees, they often take the jig seemingly a few inches after it enters the water.

Dont be afraid to experiment...Early in the season ive seen my deeper YoYo's set of 2-3 feet out fish my shallower ones.
I set several at different depths to get a pattern and then go with that for the rest of the night. Ya just never know but the 6 inches and up probably catches more fish day in and day out.
Usually 6" or less
