I know the main forage for wipers is the shad but is that the only forage in willard for them? And are they bottom feeders too?I ask since we hooked them with worms fished on the bottom.

Opertunistic feeders?

I agree and just like any predator including myself. If I dont have to work hard for a meal or cold one I dont. [laugh]

I think the guys are right, the wipers will take whatever is around. I'm sure they will feed on what ever minnows are in the lake and there are a lot of different kinds. The most plentiful are the shad but there are carp, perch crappie, catfish, walleye, smallmouth and of course baby wipers when they are stocked. WH2

cutbait seems to work "really" well for wipers up there, i am not going to say what type but last fall i could catch my limit on the south dike in 2 hrs. as well as some little cats.
