Willard has been good to me.

Usually in March, a fishing trip to Willard means warming up the boat and burning out the cobwebs and not catching anything. This year has been a pleasant surprise with the first trip yielding 5 cats and today's trip netted 8 whiskery friends.
I launched at the North Marina at 11 a.m., winds were light, sunshine was warm, and bugs were few, a perfect day to use vacation time.
Today I started in the Northeast corner with some new flig patterns. Golden carp tipped with sucker produced 2 cats and cotton candy with fillet-o-perch caught one. When the bite stopped I relocated to freeway bay and switched both rods to my new gizzard shad flig and sucker meat. Five more kitties found the net by 4 p.m. when I was tired of fighting the wind and called it a day.
All 8 were cookie cutters and fought quite well in 48 degree water, all were given CPR since I still have 2 left from my first trip. With this year starting so well I can't wait to see what summer brings.

Can you buy flig jigs or do you guys make them?
