Willard B North 1-04-2023

[SkunkedAgain]

I fished Willard today, was able to launch very easily.... Fishing was slow, but I did miss the skunk by pulling in a 10.5" perch... Ice was opening up with a lot of ice flows breaking off and floating around... Water was open over to the north dike and out in the pond a half mile or further towards the west.. Starting to open into the north end of freeway bay... Side finder showed lots of fish around, however I don't have my eye calibrated well enough to identify species yet... Was fun to fish Willard in the boat in January... Guess I've fished Bear Lake in the winter, but first time at willard for me in January... Wind blew me off about 12:30 and I didn't get there until 9:00... Pat's fligs were the winning combination for me today... Later J
