went to willard tonight with mgb put in at the south marina about 5:15pm. trolled a 1/2 mile out from the light pole and north and south along west dike about 300 yrds from dike. i trolled a silver & blue rattle trap and mgb used a silver & black rapala. mgb caught 2 wipers and a cat fish. i caught a wiper and 2 walleye. the one wiper i caught was a team effert mgb thought he had one and reeled in when his lure came to the boat it was hooked to another rattle trap but it wasnt one of ours and no one else around us but water skiers i removed the lure and started to pull in the line by hand expecting to pull up a fishing pole and there was a wiper pulled him in by manpower he was 24 1/2 inches and had another hook in his mouth what a rush landing a wiper without a pole.
