[size 4]I think the bigger wipers have come on the cast because of thier location. My personal opinion is they concentrate in areas where walleye and shad spawn, feeding on the fry. The bigger wipers have been in willard longer and know the places to go and when to go there. Now, I have not seen a good size wiper come out of willard in about two years. We may be able to wind up getting a few trolling if they were still in there. It was probably about five years ago that I saw the most big wipers caught in the lake and has been on a steady size decline since. Shoot, my dads first wiper was over six pounds, he took it home and ate it. Its the only one that we have taken home. I will send you a p.m. about some locations and times of year.[/size]
