[#0000FF]If I knew, I would be fishing them myself.
Seriously, until the water warms a few degrees the wipers are not likely to be active anywhere around the lake.
But by about mid April I usually begin finding a few out of the south marina in my float tube. The area right outside the channel entrance often has a few. And if you work on down the rock dikes going north from the entrance you will sometimes find some.
I like to drag a minnow on one rod and pitch plastics with the other. 3" white or chartreuse plastics will start catching both walleyes and wipers about this time. And the minnow will catch cats, wipers and walleyes.
Good luck if you get out. I'm about ready to hit it myself.
