New Willard Species for me.

[obifishkenobi]

Not super exciting I caught a bullhead at Willard, I have caught a trout, now I just need to catch a Tiger Musky. I think my species list for willard is Wipers, walleye, channel cat, carp, smallmouth, large mouth, yellow perch, crappie, green sunfish, rainbow trout and Bullhead catfish. Any other odd ball fish have you guys caught at Willard.

I caught one of the shad. Foul-hooked. Tossed back immediately, of course.

From your list, I have never caught a trout, bullhead, or (ly) a yellow perch at Willard.

I don’t remember if I have caught any bluegill in Willard. Are bg in there?

Before wipers there were a  lot more bluegills in Willard.  But since the young make tasty morsels when the shad are scarce, the wipers thin the ranks before they can get too  large.  But those that survive can reach 9-10 inches in Willard.

I have fished Willard since the late 1970s.  I can add bluegill, sucker, brown trout and tiger muskie to your list.  No telling what will wash down from Pineview or the Ogden River.  I only landed one small tiger muskie but have had a couple of bigger ones on.  My customary 8-10# leaders don't hold up well against a mouthful of razors.
