Went to Willard today and snagged another shad this one was only 13 or 14 inches., no wipers, no walleye. Water temp was 47 degree at the mouth of the south marina at 8:30am. Shad were jumping and darting all over the place but no one was catching anything except for a guy in a float tube and he said he caught a catfish and a carp. He said the carp was 10 pounds but gave no size for the catfish. We trolled from the feedlot to the S/E corner, then headed over to the south marina and went into the marina and out toward the island. We then went over to the light pole and fished there until we had to leave at 12:00 noon, water temp was 44 degree. WH2

Thanks for the update WH2. Looks like lots of people are gettin' the itch. I can't wait to head out and try for some eyes. Good luck when you head out next.
