Got my first Walleye today at Willard from shore. We were fishing for cats with a worm on the bottom. I caught a carp and had alot of bites. Then I hooked what I thought was a cat because it wasn’t fighting like a wiper or carp so I let my grandaughter finish reeling it in. When it close to shore I couldn’t believe it. He was about 18 inches and my son-in-law is enjoying him for dinner.After that we didn’t get any bites at all.The fish just turned off.
Glad to here you got your first eye,I will be there in the morning hopening to get an eye or two or some wipers myself!!M.H.
I fished for awhile for the wipers but did not even get a bite. The last 2 times I was out there I got those little ones on Rooster Tails.There wasn’t hardly any birds on the water either.
Were you fishing on the West dike again? Way to go on the first walleye, did you get a taste of it? WH2
Congrats on your fist Walleye! Did you notice if Weber Basin Water was letting in any H2O?
Yes I was on the west side. It sounded like they were still pumpng it out. .The water level is lower I think.
