First time I ever fished Willard was at a Utah BASS Federation event. Mike Casey ( some of you may know Mike from Smith & Edwards) was President of the Fed and was trying to get some publicity for the pond and better management. We fished crankbaits along the rip rap, what an experience. Those cats hit those cranks like a ton of bricks !! First one that I caught almost took the rod out of my hands. Mike and some of the NUBA guys put on the fish fry and it was exceptional !! That was 43 years ago !!
