What a great way to get back on the open water---great weather, great scenery, great company, and another great learning experience. I think the fishing at Willard will just get better as the weather and the water warm up.
Thanks for the tubing and fishing lessons TubeDude! I am still learning the finer art of getting in and out of the tube. I thought I was a fairly capable fisherman in a tube, but there are so many more things I need to learn. Furthermore, I guess I will be forever learning about the habits of the fish, fishing lures, and presentation.
The only downer during the trip was the leak/s in my neoprene waders. The cold, cold water inside the left leg of my waders was bad enough; but when I had to kick so hard as I fought the wind getting off the lake the wet clothes rubbed against the skin underneath my left knee and left me with about a 3" open sore. I hope it heals quickly because I am anxious to get out on the open water again soon.
