I mentioned that I had plans to fish for walleye at Billy Clapp, and in spite of concerns about it being a windy day last Thursday, my buddy James Lebow agreed to go. When we arrived at the launch we were greeted by a stiff breeze, and that persisted when we reached the fishing grounds. We made a couple of passes through an area that had produced for us before, and we landed three fish. We moved up lake to the area below the powerhouse, which is where we spend most of our time when fishing for walleye on Billy Clapp. This is never easy, as there is a strong current here, which makes keeping our baits on the bottom, without snagging keeps you on your toes. Add wind to equation and it can really be a challenge. James is a master at this, though, and while he struggled to keep the boat under control in these conditions, he still managed to fish with two rods and landed more walleye than I did! We had agreed to fish a short day, and when we headed back to the launch to fillet our catch we still had 13 walleye in the livewell.
