Made it out to Willard this morning, and launched amongst the crowd. We trolled from the south marina to the feedlot without a bite. After teh wife started complaining that I promised her a fish, we headed for the south dike, where she hooked and landed a 21" walleye, and a 25 horse trolling motor. She's blaming the trolling motor on me though.
After that we fiddle farted around a while, and went back toward the feedlot. She hooked and landed a smallish wiper, and claimed to have many more hits, none of which were witnessed by anyone, so they don't count.
I caught 2 small wipers. The "hot" lures today were the cheapo walmart "arkansas shad", and the white/black prism shad. I heard from Petty, who was busy looking for someone named "wilson", and I don't know how he did.
I think the best part of the day was getting through to the dictator, um director, um wife, that we need a boat. Now all I have to do is convince her that we should wait till next year[pirate].
OH well, good day, and the crowds and bugs were manageable.
