Willard Grind

I fished Willard today with several DWR guys in my boat, I was not to optimistic after the cold front this week, but we  grinded out a few today to take home. We  broke 2 off, threw back 3 small eyes and long line released several more. We got them on bottom bouncers going about 2 mph. I will be out there again tomorrow, I expect it will be similar tough fishing with it improving next week with warming temperatures.

What area  did you fish.

Light Pole down the West Walll several hundred yards off the rocks.

We got back out again today with Brookie, Elayo and Juma and had a little better day than yesterday. Caught most of them on the bottom bouncers and a couple on a #7 perch pattern Flicker Shad with a 2 ounce clip weight. The most productive worm harness was a perch pattern that Brookie made. We got them going 1.8-2mph in about 25’ of water.  I’m predicting that Willard will be peaking next week.
