I'm Crabby!

Any tips for getting a look at M1? It seems to be my nemesis. I tried
again last night and coudn't find it.

I'm using a 4.5 in Dob (Orion Skyquest) in moderately light-polluted
skies -- suburban Indianapolis, northwest of the city. (The
southeastern sky is hoplessly lost in light-glow, but the sky western
sky isn't too bad.)

Do I need a bigger scope? Darker sky? Better chart? Or more patience?
