Willard still cranking out the eyes

[TubeDude]

That pretty well confirms either one of two things:
1.  Getting in a boat jinxes me...a float tuber...and I can't catch fish from a boat.  or...
2.  I...a float tuber...jinx any boat I get in and the fish won't cooperate that day.

3 trips to Willard in a boat...with 3 knowledgeable anglers with good boats and electronic.  Score...1 fish each trip to ward off the skunks, but that's it.  And other boats on the lake at the same time all doing well.

Glad you guys got into the fish.  You may have been questioning your own angler credentials after our trip.

That was exactly what I was thinking after our last trip out there Pat, questioning my angler experience at Willard. Yesterday started off the same, with Dan landing the first three fish but then I got my mojo back and I caught the next 4 or 5. I told Dan the same thing, I just could not believe you and I had such poor luck last week, when he and ira were catching fish but such is fishing.

I also think your most recent trip validates the wallieologists' belief in the "walleye chop".   We went out on a glassy calm day last week, but most of the better reports this year have come from days...or at least periods...of some wind conditions roughing up the water.  Not so noticeable with wipers but walleyes have the hypersensitive eyes and prefer low light or diffused light conditions.

Again, congrats on a good day and I'm glad you worked off the float tuber jinx.
