Willard 5-12 - 2knots - 05-12-2023

Limits of eyes this am before noon for Ira and I Started in Freeway at 7 due to the wind and we picked up 2 eyes and a cat bottom bouncing fire tiger worm harnesses. Once the wind layer down ( which isn’t supposed to do) we moved down to the area in the south we got them on Tuesday and had a steady pick with a few doubles. Ira also got a small wiper. Water was 58 when we dropped in and slightly over 59 when we pulled the gear. Biggest eye was 20.5”s

Nice job did they all come bottom  bouncing ? Did you have to add weight to get them down deeper.

RE: Willard 5-12 - 2knots - 05-12-2023

All bottom bouncing in 21’ of water, 2oz bottom bouncer. Was anywhere from 39-41’ on the line counter reel depending on breeze, we were going .8 to 1.1 on the gps

Way to go you two, sounds like a great morning at the Bay. Were there a lot of people over at the South end?

No most were up north and freeway but early wind had a lot to do with where we started and others

Was the wind blowing from the North or South?

Way to go Alan. I went by Willard yesterday morning around 8 on my way to get my new boat, and thought it looked like a good Walleye chop going on.

What kind of boat did you get Randy?

RE: Willard 5-12 - fast_randy - 05-13-2023

I bought my brothers boat from my sister-in-law. It's a 2008 but still like new. He didn't use it much. All he did was golf. A 17' 2" G3 made by Yamaha. 115 hp. Yamaha motor with 6 hp kikker. Front electric with remote.

Wow, that's a nice upgrade, you should have many fun days on the water with it.
