My fishing buddy James Lebow, who lives in Moses Lake, and I were wondering where we might want to go fishing this past Thursday. Something close and quick was his preference. We had a pretty good day at Billy Clapp Lake fishing for walleye recently, so we decided to go back there. The forecast was for some wind that was to die down later in the morning, but that proved to be an issue when we started fishing. We were at the very top end of Billy Clapp, below the Powerhouse, and not only was the wind and issue, but the current was also even stronger than when we were here last. James tried to keep us in the small “bowl” where we usually get our fish, and we got a couple, but it was hard work in this very snaggy area. We moved further down the lake to get out of the current and did get a few more walleye here. Fishing was tough and we released several smaller walleye and smallmouth bass and ended up with seven fish in the live well when we headed for the dock at about 11:30. We’ll try it again later this summer.
