Great info. Awesome details and thanks I just bought a boat with only a Lawrence and throwing spinners whiling drifting or trolling is my favorite right now!
This was a helpful video. Gave me confidence to keep working areas I was already working and I tried a new area you described in your video and landed a 25” yesterday. Happy August!
You pack a lot of good info into a vid guy! We're heading up to Manitoba this week, and going to be snorkel spearfishing for walleyes. It's usually a backcountry canoe trip, but a couple of us are having delicate backs this summer, so we're doing some new turf and will be hunting weeds for them more than fishing bottoms of falls and bottlenecks with current. So stoked to see you cover the weeds and see them on FFS; just gets my imagination going for seeing some live and collecting some eaters. Keep up the good fun and content.
@@tjsguideservice Manitoba and Sask allow snorkel spearfishing (no scuba tanks) same regs as hook and line. Not many lakes in Manitoba that work due to too much bog tannins in a lot of the lakes, thus poor vis. Not many people do it up there, but those that do love the hunt of course. Really fun way to collect a meal, and so fun to see them in their natural element.
T Jaaaaaaay !!!! Perfect episode man love it when you show the diagram an depths !!! Heading out tonight I’ll keep this in mind my man appreciate you ! Big fish time is right around the corner !
New to FFS and learning as I go. Noticed you are fishing more from bow now, than rear of boat as you did previous in your vids. I am fishing from the rear/side, and feel like I'm more confined to fishing only one side or rear of the boat. Can you share your insight on preference, and in what conditions you prefer one over the other. Might be worthy of a video on FFS placement and pros/cons. ??? Thanks for all your fishing insight. You have a gift of breaking things down and explaining things.
Really appreciate the kind words! I have been going back and forth and like both for different reasons. If it’s not windy and I’m hunting down singles or bigger fish, there’s nothing better than having it on the trolling motor! It it’s super windy and I am setting up on stationary pods of fish or if I have multiple people with me, I like to have it at the console, so I can spot look and keep fish on the LS and have the wind yo my back
Thx! I see u are still using your shuttle at the bow. Do you have two lvs34's... and just disconnect when going from bow to rear mount & pole? Thx again for all your info. Much appreciated. 👍
@@apexsrv I use the same shuttle and transducer! I take the transducer off the pole and put it on the trolling motor when I need to. Not ideal but doesn’t take too terribly long!
Nice video, TJ. Today on a local reservoir, I believe I'm seeing a thermocline at 25'. This signal is consistant throughout the area of the lake I fished. What do you do when you encounter a thermocline above those structures you like at this time of year? Suspended fish over a thermocline? Any thots? Thanks.
Appreciate that, John! 👊 they may be suspended over those, I have seen them relate to structure or transitions even if they are suspended above. Otherwise I would look for shallower structure and find sweet spots at the depth of the thermocline!
TJ, I saw your bobber video with really good tips on using your rod for depth. What’s the best way to set your stop in deeper water? (25-30ft) Thanks, you have some very practical tips…
That gets a little trickier, but i usually just use my livescope to help. You can also use your 2D sonar as well just drop it straight down to see. I usually err on the side of higher
Haha! I had to make up for lost time! The rest of the summer I’ve been slacking! I quit guiding to do more content and life got so busy I didn’t get nearly as much done as I wanted
