Hit the Willard today with a fellow BFT'er. Got on the water around 7:30ish. Fished hard till around 1. I landed 2 smallish cats, while my buddy hooked one smallmouth that unzipped at the boat. Later in the day my partner beat the skunk off with a Walleye and a dink wiper. Interesting day. The worst I have done non-post front all year. We raked the bottom with bouncers, and hit the mid depths with the whole arsenal of cranks. Varied speeds, and depths. No love from the Target wipers or eyes, save a loaner eye in the inlet. To rough for boils . The shad appear to be flourishing as the graph was non stop. Must be well fed buggers. Could have been worse. Got to figure something out mid-week, or else I am going to have to start eating trout again.... Oh well.
