Fliging Willard Friday

[obifishkenobi]

Randy and I had Willard all to our self Friday. We launched from the north marina in the dark and ran over to the feed lot and started dragging various fligs tipped with a variety of baits in about 8’ of water after going more than an hour without a bite we decided to run out to the west but the farther west we went the windier it got, so after fishing a few minutes I consulted my wind app which showed that the east side was flat so we went back close to where we started but a little farther out off the dike. We got our first cat at 9:25 and then picked up 2 more cats the largest 24” and a 22” Waleye over the next couple hours. They where all caught on perch from last winter. Fire tiger and silver blue flig both produced. I have managed to catch a few fliging but have yet to have what I would consider a good day. I think I need to get out with one of you flig pros and figure out what I’m doing wrong.
