RE: Willard B North 1-04-2023 - SkunkedAgain - 01-14-2023 Update for the Bay is open water and boatable, I've taken the boat down twice so far and even caught a few fish... No ice that we could see yesterday except pushed up on the north dike...

Thanks. I ended up taking the boat out yesterday, and ventured around to check out the lay of the lake. Ice free everywhere I went. No fish though. There seems to be an abundance of large shad outside the north marina.

We saw some of those also, it looked like the bald eagles were fighting over 1 that washed onto shore north of the marina RE: Willard B North 1-04-2023 - danell - 01-15-2023 (01-15-2023, 06:49 PM)2knots Wrote:Initially I thought we stumbled upon small schools of crappie, but they were moving too fast and they were busting the surface as if they were being chased. My buddy had, what I think to be a big catfish break his line, but his drag wasn't properly set.(01-15-2023, 05:30 PM)danell Wrote:(01-14-2023, 02:47 PM)wiperhunter2 Wrote:(01-14-2023, 04:02 AM)danell Wrote: Does WB still have a lot of open water in and outside the north marina?

For a January it's was a good day. I was the old man on the shore trying to get something on my slip bobber. I wish I would have brought my boat to scope out the lake. Did you see the island? Was it out of the water? I'm hoping to map that area. RE: Willard B North 1-04-2023 - danell - 01-15-2023 (01-15-2023, 07:49 PM)doitall5000 Wrote:Aww, gotcha. I remember you.

RE: Willard B North 1-04-2023 - doitall5000 - 01-15-2023 No takers or nibbles. It was ok I was just happy to get out on solid ground.

We slow troll the fligs we get from TubeDude at .5 mph, using cut bait. Just a few weeks ago and last month before it froze up we caught them vertical jigging but that did not work for us on Fri when we were out there.(01-15-2023, 07:26 PM)wiperhunter2 Wrote:(01-15-2023, 05:30 PM)danell Wrote:(01-14-2023, 02:47 PM)wiperhunter2 Wrote: It is totally open now.

RE: Willard B North 1-04-2023 - MrShane - 01-21-2023 Please pray that the golf courses don’t get shut down. ‘Those’ people that use them might buy a boat and help clog up our ramps if they can’t get out on the greens.
