Wipers

[obifishkenobi]

How long do they usually boil for? Do they go into the fall? I've only caught 1 wiper in my life haha. I'm trying to figure them out so I can catch more.

Yes, there are more wipers showing up this year than in other recent years.  Still not as good as just before and after about 2010...when there were wide open boils in many parts of the lake...even inside the harbors at times.

Here is a PDF file I put together a while back.  Should have some basic info that might help with your wiper quest.

There certainly a lot of those small wipers that survived over the winter Do you think it is just shear numbers stocked or the switch from Palmetto to Sunshine or vise versa I’m not quite sure what they where using and what they moved to. One of my neighborhood kids I fish with quit a bit called me all excited from Willard yesterday he said he caught over 30 of those juvenile wiper off eagle beach out of boils on a night crawler suspended under a slip bobber in his kayak.
