I don't like bait fishing but I've kept hearing of people catching wipers on mussels so I gave it a try. Once I got it figured out it was hot fishing. In an hour and forty five minutes my buddy and I landed ten and missed a lot of hits. The fishing was still awesome when we left but I had to leave. We were fishing on the south side of the lake. Parked in the first pull off on the road that goes along the dike. the key was to cast a little farther than everyone else. I had my waders and would wade and then cast and that made the difference between catching fish and not. I had two poles and owuld try one shallow and wouldn't get any hits on it. The biggest was just over three pounds so nothing huge but they were all fun to catch. Also I want to say thanks to tubedude for sending me his info on willard which was great to study and helped.
