Once again, in spite of best intel, tactics, and great effort and generosity on my behalf by some truly great BFT members, esp. Gumby (thanks) my unmitigated and relentless streak of failures to catch fish at Willard remains intact. I'm beginning to become perversely proud of the record.[

I didn't get skunked, though. Managed a fat 10" crappiefor my 4 hour effort today. I think I am going to commit ALL my time and energy to Willard bay for the rest of the year until I have a good day.
Now, I am NOT a good fisherman, but this makes the a total of 30 trips now without catching a walleye or wiper, and gives a grand total of 8 cookie cats, 2 smallmouth, and two crappie. My last "good" day on Willard came before I was married, and my oldest started college this year.
It's a curse.
