I've been lurking around for some time now. Thought it's about time I introduced myself. Been an angler nearly all my life. Mostly fly fishing rivers for the last 15 years. Last year I bought a boat, to make it easier to take my kids, family, and friends out with me. I've read a lot of good reports and info here on BFT over the last year. Lot's of angler's willing to help other people out. I hope to do the same with my first post.
Hit Willard this afternoon, and had a blast. Went to the light pole first thing. We weren't marking (or catching) many fish, so we moved to the north east, to an area we fished last weekend. Trolling gray and white Husky Jerk, Rapalas at the usual 2.5 to 3 miles and hour. Started picking up fish right away. Caught 12 or so in 2 hours. 4 of the fish were caught reeling up the empty lines, after the boat stopped. Plenty of other boats in the area were landing fish also. All the fish we caught were wipers, and we finally hooked into some larger fish. If you see me out on the water (or in the parking lot) stop by and say hi. I'll be in a older, white, Crestliner Phantom SST.
