Today's video is all about spring walleye movements. This week we are seeing the first big warm up of the season and in coming days and weeks these fish are going to be on the move. Early in the spring we tend to find walleyes in shallow spawning locations. As the water warms we generally end up fishing the first piece of structure adjacent to these spawning locations. This video is all about where walleyes are moving to in the first warm up of the season.

Tom, do a boundary waters trip this summer, probably a 3-4 hour drive from you. Your boat would be allowed on much of snowbank lake, or you could go old school and rent a boat with no fish finder.

@logandaniels2889 4 года назад

It would be awesome to see a Rainy lake, Kabetogama or namakan new lake series

@jasonbroom7147 4 года назад

Your mix of commentary and fish-catching clips is absolutely perfect. It's no wonder your videos are so popular.

@gerardhaubert8210 4 года назад

Would enjoy having you show us your boat, how you have it organized etc .......beautiful dog!

@joelchapman3982 4 года назад

Working on your jigging technique & it really works. My problem is I'm in Montana and the wind is always blowing. I get a big bow in my line then its impossible to see when your jig hits bottom. How do you handle wind? Heavier jigs? Great job,keep em coming!

@fishwalleye9517 4 года назад

have always wondered this. Same problem here in ND wind never gives up.

@aliharajli95 4 года назад

In michigan on the detroit river. Current is strong and high winds. What we do is troll with the current at a speed thatll allow us to vertical jig straight down and up. Then when we get downriver, drive back up river to the starting point and repeat

@Himes26 4 года назад

I have the same problem a lot too, couple things that help are lowering your rod tip all the way down the the water you start the jig lift, then you are only exposing a foot or so of line to the wind. Also position your boat so you’re upwind of your target and maybe go up in jig size. Lastly use hi visibility line like yellow or bright green.

Do you ever use autochart live instead of lakemaster?

@carliefrederixon9108 4 года назад

Just bought elite rod

@klappy803 4 года назад

I catch two walleyes over 20" a year it seems like...those are always picture fish! Tom these videos should cost money. Someday when i'm in Hayward it would be great to buy you a few beers! Thanks man!

@Himes26 4 года назад

I would in fact pay for a Tom Boley instructional Video series. Unfortunately I now need to get a trolling motor with spot lock and a sonar unit with side view.

@DirtyJobsGuy1 4 года назад

Yep! You must have read my mind! This is the video was hoping you’d make!

@shanerust6969 4 года назад

When you find pods of fish, is there a tell tail way to know they are definitely walleyes instead of suckers? Do they group differently? Or is an underwater camera needed to be relatively sure?

@bransayler 4 года назад

I'm assuming it's Lindy time once they push out even deeper? And when do you go that route vs just casting and jigging? Love how your vids are so informational. Thanks!

@timtemby4335 4 года назад

@tannerroberts1640 4 года назад

Tom, looks like you have a 17-18’ tiller. I have something similar (albeit older) but am looking at a humminbird (helix 7 ice G3N) so I’m wondering what trolling motor you have on the front? Thinking about upgrading to something I can network with spotlock and contour follow. I fish mostly crappies and walters. Thanks for awesome videos!!

@shane1022 4 года назад

What is your alternative to spot lock? How would you do this without it? A lot of us out here love your videos but it would be nice to see some alternatives for people who might not have a great setup. Fortunately I have SI and DI but no spot lock yet. How would you recommend approaching fish you see on the side scan when you do not have the instant ability to keep your boat in place?

@jessiebrickner7129 4 года назад

Anchor, I would imagine. I have spot lock but I honestly think I got a very dumb unit. Granted, it is one of the older powerdrive v2 motors. It generally takes about 5 minutes for it to stabilize after hitting the anchor button. I get the sense that the newer, bigger units on the more expensive motors tend to perform better. What I try to do is drive into the wind so that any fish I see will be downwind of the boat. That makes it easier to spot lock / anchor.

@shane1022 4 года назад

@@jessiebrickner7129 That is an awesome tip that I never thought of Jessie, thank you so much for your comment, I will give it a shot!!

@jessiebrickner7129 4 года назад

@@shane1022 No problem. Another thing I do from time to time is throw it in reverse and back up with the wind. If I see a pod of fish, all I have to do is throw it in forward, move a bit, and spot lock or anchor. That is far easier than trying to turn the boat around. Now, if you buy a newer trolling motor, you can connect it to your locator and have it navigate to way points. That would be deluxe too. See pod. Set waypoint upwind of them, and have trolling motor quietly move you into position.

Hot darn LOL

@Zaucy1 4 года назад

Great vid once again Tom! I always put down a like and have subbed and notified. I have a huge solid to ask of you though. See that god awful giant house by the landing @1:29? It's probably one of the most identifiable shoreline structures in any of your vids, could you please blur that out in future videos? I've been fishing this bar for over 45 years, and the traffic there is getting quite intense. Thanks Tom! -Ross.

@jyakes1394 4 года назад

Awesome to see the response to these comments in the way of tailoring content. Most-informative fishing channel on RU-vid. You have done "new lake walleye breakdown"...would love to see a new lake multi-species breakdown. My panfish game could use some work 🤣

@chrisgustafson9342 4 года назад

LoL nice "catch" of that one eye

@potato00007 4 года назад

Catching them in 15 ft off of the flats they were spawning in. In northern MN, temps on the small lakes already mid 50s.

@lloydspooner 4 года назад

I really enjoy your videos. They are very educational. How would you change your strategy if you were fishing a river reservoir that has a variable water level?...meaning they draw it down in the spring and then raise it back to full pool.

@Hill_Billy_Without_A_Hill 4 года назад

How you tie your line to the mono? Or you tie direct with braid to lure. Do quick clips for lure change outs alter presentation negative or help?

Tom, I know you love walleyes, however, it would be nice to get the seasonal progression on smallmouth on the deep clear lakes in Hayward as well. Thank you.

@jamiehartzell5286 4 года назад

Nice walleyes your the Best at explaining the next progression of the walleye movement.

@codysmith5507 4 года назад

The screen shots of walleyes next to structure is always helpful. An fish in general. Especially when u specifically identify what the fish are

@TheSaltblock 4 года назад

I was knockin out saugeyes a month before you and it felt so gooood. Jig n worm like a charm in Illinois.

@loganlease1 4 года назад

What if you don’t have side imaging tho lol 😔and no spot lock In the wind like you had

@jkvisker 4 года назад

Great video, any chance you can do a river fishing one soon? I live on the Mississippi and would love to get your take on where to find them.

@rski5888 4 года назад

Tom, what is the name of the rod holder you have with the pliers mount on it?

@shanerust6969 4 года назад

Your educational platform and style are second to none! I really appreciate and enjoy your shows

@waggs6322 4 года назад

How do you get an 1/8 ounce jig down to the bottom in the wind like that?

Do you ever drift jig on large flats or have advice on it?

@eyechaser8248 4 года назад

Great vid as always Tom. What criteria do you use to determine when the slip bonnet bite should pick up. I’ve heard you say in many videos early June but I was curious on water temp? Also, I fish a reservoir system that is very muddy- is slip bobber fishing affected greatly by that? Thanks- I know you’re a busy man keep up the great work

@eyechaser8248 4 года назад

Bobber not bonnet lols

@colinpotter7465 4 года назад

Great vid and your boat mate is awesome with the camera when you get hooked up. Went out yesterday here in Saskatchewan yesterday it was a grind but still put 26 walleyes in the boat. Keep up the great vids
