I agree in the right situation Walleye can give you a good battle. Trolling cranks at warp speed at Willard not so much
Drag in like a wet towel, but oh so tasty and fun to figure out!
Best fighting walleye I ever caught and I know you experienced them were the Walleye in river below Yuba in high waters years of old 84’ I think.
Strong current and healthy eyes up to 6.5 7lbs they were strong fighters and kicked butt!
Those were awesome!

Ah yes. The good ol' days below Yuba. We definitely did some damage down there. Really miss that. Also, we got some good fun while chucking yellow plastics into the rocks at Willard a few times. Always fun to try to fool those wascally walleyes and to get some tugs out of them before they turn into tasty fillets.
I dug up a couple of pics from the past. The first is of a northern and some walleyes caught on a trip with Rick. The second is actually a shot you took with my camera after one of our trips at Willard.
