ShareJust a quick note… About a week or two ago I exchanged emails with Jonathon over at Fishing Fury about the lack of walleye fishing information on their site. It’s a fantastic site, full of tons of information about a wide variety of fishing related information. It’s obvious from top to bottom that Jonathon and [...]

ShareWhat a fun week. Between rainstorms… heck, even during rainstorms, we managed to get out all but a couple of nights over the last week+. League night was probably the worst for rain, otherwise we had a great mix of fishing. After league night, my wife and son took the boat out on the big [...]

Share We watched the weigh-in for a local fishing tournament this afternoon and saw some pretty nice 5 fish limits come in. The winners had just over 16 pounds of walleye. Big fish for the day was 5.5 pounds. As you might imagine, my son and I got home with an itch to do some [...]

ShareI got a little reminder about experimenting last week when my wife and I hit a local lake to test the walleye action. Earlier in the week my son and I had fished league using lindy rigs and leeches. Our setup was comprised of a six foot leader with a plain red hook tipped with [...]

ShareWow… spring is really early this year. The ice is off the big lake about two weeks ahead of time. This is going to probably mean some early spawning activity. With warmer waters around the opener a couple of my favorite early season haunts will probably be out the window, so I’ll have to concentrate [...]

ShareAs spring approaches I’m starting to make my checklists. Looking out the back window I see the water flowing nicely down the river and know that the walleyes will soon start contemplating the yearly trek upstream and to the natural spawning areas on local lakes. While they make those preparations I’m making my own, going [...]

If you are looking to upgrade from a mid-range rod, this guide will help you understand some of the choices available. Among the choices you will find models [...]

ShareIf you have spent any time walleye fishing at all, you probably know that Canada is often considered the Mecca of walleye fishing. The Canadian shield is covered with thousands of lakes teeming with fish of all species. If you haven’t yet had the chance, you really need to spend some time in Canada walleye [...]

ShareI remember back when I was a teenager I went fishing with an older friend. He got a hot tip from his buddy that there were walleyes biting on a local lake. As I said in an earlier post, I didn’t fish for walleyes at the time, so I didn’t really care too much, but [...]

ShareIt’s funny how some fishermen actually get somewhat embarrassed when they have to admit that they were fishing with bobbers… as if they were somehow cheating or using some tactic reserved only for young kids.  Considering the fact that this is a very common ice fishing method, I don’t really see how anyone can really [...]
