No wallies at Willard

[MrShane]

Amazing what can change in 48 hrs.
Great easy fishing just until the 20th.
I knew I should have listened to you all but I had to go today (6/23) and struggled.
Grateful for the three Walleye I netted and only missed one other hit.
Two on lipless crank and other on Rapala floater, all three fish on orange colors.
Missed hit was on Luckycraft blue/silver Pointer.

You got 3 more walleyes than I did, Shane.  Any size to them?  I'm catching more small ones than in prior years.  As a result I'm releasing more than I'm keeping.

I assume you're running your crankbaits behind bottom bouncers?  I need to try that as I have a bunch of them from my Alumacraft days.
 
I have 2 Lucky Craft lures, got them as gifts from when they first came out.  I never run them, though, maybe because they're so expensive and I'm cheap. 

Hi Jon,
I fished bb’ers/harnesses for about 1.5 hrs without a hit, so switched to cranks.
Two fish came off the lipless crank/planer board, no weight.
Third fish off of long-lined Rapala, no weight.
One fish about 16”, other two about 15”.
No food in their bellies which surprised me.
P.S. I am a ‘frugal angler’ like yourself, but go treat yourself and run those LC’s.
I look at LC’s this way:
If I don’t ruin them/lose them while fishing, after I die my wife will just sale them for .25 cents at my ‘going away’ yard sale.
Pro Tip: One day ask me what the protocol on my boat is when we lose an LC!
