I spent my 50th birthday fishing Willard and it did not disappoint.I got my lines in around 6:30 near the light pole. There was a solid Walleye chop, I put out a couple bottom bouncers and almost immediately got into the walleye, I had my limit in the box by 8am. What worked for me was trolling back and forth across the wind going 2.5mph and when I would turn up into the wind the inside bouncer would make contact with the bottom and I would hook up. At 8 I decided to target wipers so I switch to cranks and spread up to 3 3 mph but did not catch any wiper just more Walleyes that zi released several larger than one I had in my box and 3 perch that went home with me.
