Well done, sounds like a great day

Great report, glad to see things are finally improving, pretty amazing so many perch are being caught this year from trollers. What was the color of the lures you had your best success with? What was the water temps?


RE: Willard 5/24 better day - oldguy - 05-25-2023

Chartreuse  and white and the water was about 66 when we left.

Thanks for the report, how are the bugs? I took my wife out there and the dogs on Sunday and I had to give the boat a full detail because of dead bugs everywhere. Awesome to have your son out with you and good success fishing.
