Hi all, I'm in the Air Force and moved here about a year ago but I just got back from the middle east so I got some leave to burn. Im from Whidbey Island in the Puget Sound of Washington so most of my fishing background is in saltwater. I was a huge fan of crabbing and clamming but now I wanna try my hand at some freshwater. I read about Willard Bay and I'm about to go there today just to check it out.

Hey thanks guys, I appreciate all the support on the forum and in Utah. I've never been to a place that holds their military in such high regard.
I just went to the north area of Willard by the boat ramp and was wondering if there is a better place to go, maybe somewhere free? If not its ok I enjoyed myself. I took the kids with me to get them out of the house, so I didnt go fishing. They're still too young to go fishing.

if you dont mind me asking how old are the kids... I got my grandson out when he was about five... he loved it.. :-)
