Tom always does a great job breaking down what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and how he’s doing it. I’ve learned a lot from this channel.

best channel on youtube hands down dude absolutely love these walleye tip videos!

What?? Who would thumb down this?? This info is like gold!! They must be just mad cuz they can't catch fish like the walleye king!! 😁

Ive been fishing for over 50 years and I love how you go into great detail on how to jig. Talking about the retrieve and actually showing your retrieve has taught me. Thank you. Make more Down imaging videos. I would think most of us cant pay $700 for side imaging

Give us a tour of your boat setup: holders, motor, electronics, live well etc. thanks

I wanna see a detailed overview on your boat and how it's set up.👍

Tom please talk about knots, line choice, rig setups. Best videos I’ve seen.

Compliments from Switzerland!! Just GREAT explanations and help from your videos to the sport fishing community, in a very credible and likeable way 👍

Great information Tom. Thank you for doing these videos for us!!

Thanks Tom.

Great information Tom! Many thanks!

Legendary content, Tom! This video is gold in the fishing community! Thank you! I appreciate all you do!

I fish walleye alot. Using plastics isn't my strong suit. Love the videos on that.

Your videos are some of the best out there...always great information.

I have learned a lot of information from this channel. Especially where to fish, what to use and how to use the bait. I've also started to depend on side imaging and looking at Lake maps on GPS to find fish. I used to use my smart strike chip to help find fish. Keep up the great videos.

Man I love these videos. I'm in NC and using you techniques for largemouth bass. Doing things no one else is, is productive. Thanks keep up the good work.

I need to start trying to catch deeper water bass and was wondering if this also worked for largemouth in the 10 to 15 foot range on bottom. Shallow water is my most comfortable place for largemouth because I don't have expensive electronics. Just a depthfinder with cheap 2d sonar.

Thank you

Your style is superior to any other video producer out there in my opinion. Please keep the great info coming. Thanks Tom

Man trust when I see you,imma bear hug you! THANKS MAN,MY JIG GAME IS BANNANAS NOW! I TRUELY THANK YOU MAN! KEEP UP THE GREAT 👍🏽 CONTENT! ALWAYS LOVE YOUR RIVER CONTENT! KEEP THAT LIKE WET!

Good info. Been fishing green bay and doing well using your info and tips. Best fishing channel on KZread

Love these type of videos.

Thanks Tom I just finally figured your summer snap, your dropping rod then wrist snap, that's what I wanted to know, thank you

Awesome video as usual. I like when you let us know the water temps in conjunction With your lures and presentations. Water Temperatures Keeps your info relevant across the planet because early May for you with a temp of 45 doesn’t come till mid June temp of 45 for us way up north.

Your videos are awesome. The knowledge transfer, techniques, everything! Hooked Up!

Another great video Tom! I love pitching plastics for walleyes. From the spawn all the way through ice up they are effective. I don’t know of another artificial that is even close as far as versatility.

Tom, As a guy who enjoys getting out fishing but struggles to consistently catch fish, I find your videos by far THE BEST, you are always very informative and educational. Thank you! I notice that you often direct tie your baits instead of using quick snaps, why is that? When should I direct tie and when is it appropriate to use quick snaps and why? Thanks much.

Slam walleye during the hard water season, but haven’t had much luck spring or summer. Hopefully your tips will help, seeing as I definitely caught more during the winter because of your tips

devils lake, north dakota checking in with a thumbs up

Love the fact he's from Wisconsin, Hayward specifically!

Super important video thanks for sharing

I m big Walleye angler here in Virginia were Walleye are kinda not so popular.Keep up with your videos.I learn a lot from you👍

Very Cool Videos! Thank You for sharing Your Advice!

Great information! Recently subscribed, long time walleye fishermen who needs to perfect these techniques. Learned so much about plastics, Realized I’ve been fishing them all wrong

Excellent content thank you

Tom,What jig head and plastic colors do you use most for walleyes,do you base it on weather and water clarity?We’ve learned so much from your channel.Thank you for teaching us how to fish.We really increased our catch but we continue to miss reading the feel of some strikes.This video by far is one of the best!

Good info!

Really great videos as always. Here in Sweden we have a lot of videos about pike but Walleye/Zander is harder to find. It would be really interesting to see a video about how to fish a powerplant dam/lake. That's my favorite places to fish and it would be really nice to get some inputs about that.

Tom, I scouted out Acme’s web site. I am going to purchase some google eye heads and some of those swimbaits. Can’t thank you enough for all the informative videos.

Walleye king,were is the walleye queen today😎👍

Love the videos. I’ve learned so much from this channel. You should do trolling with cranks and harness tips

Water temp is 58 in Illinois. I filled my freezer in 1 week. Grubs are killin it right now.

Great explanations! Works also on european Zander...😉

I think this is my fav video you’ve done Tom. I saved it to my “fishing tips” folder. Excellent technical information. Does all of this info apply to shore fisherman too, do you think?

Could you do a spring pike fishing video?

Very good info. Thanks for being so informative. I watch all your videos. I fish a lake called mcbride in Iowa. The DNR redid the lake some time ago so I like using jigs because of getting hung up on structure. My question is , have you ever used snag less jigs for walleyes?

How do you target shallow early season walleye when a big cold front rolls in? Do they push out deeper? Was wondering if you could do a video down the line relating to weather and how it affects you, thanks.

I love your videos! You make it so easy to understand. May I ask what are you using for a rod for this type of fishing? Length, action?

Great video Tom! Enjoyed seeing how you work the bait in those different scenarios. Also, it looks like that is a bit of a slack line snap the way you dip the tip or am I wrong?

Great tips, thanks!What rod, reel & line test you using?

You should make a video on boat positioning for walleyes.

Check out some of his other videos, lots of nice boat positioning stuff. Especially educational if you are using side imaging.

Hi Tom,love the videos what length, rod action due you suggest for all applications in this video

Very nice video, lots of details that i did not pick up in your other videos. For rigging, are using flourocarbon leader? If so how long and what lb? Thanks!

We get alot of muddy water in the spring on Lake Erie what colors you run in muddy water?

Can you do a video on worm harnesses?

Tom i found that adding a propeller about a foot above jig attracts the fish and slows down the drop,have you ever tried that?

What's your go to walleye bait for muddy lakes? The lake I fish is shallow in spots, there's places that go to 40 but it's in the middle of the lake. I mostly drift with a jig and crawler over the humps that go from 8ft to 20 but not too much luck. I'm doing something wrong.

Just curious what your thoughts on the Garmin livescope ice bundle for both open water and ice fishing compared to what you use with hummingbird?

Tom I was wondering how to crawl dad's work. I have great success with the power bait chigger crawl for bass. Do you ever use a crawdad for walleye?

Pullll like that, pullll like that

Nice👍

Still a good one like usal😁 question for you Tom, i think i see all your vids ,but not remember see one you fish whit grubs? do you have one? Thank you

Tom, how long of a mono leader are you using?

You should do a full review on your boat! Pretty weird seeing a tiller boat without wave whackers! And what's the reason why you have a kicker on it? Wouldn't your big motor pretty much do anything your kicker does?

@patrickempey3584

4 жыл бұрын

Hard to get the big motor down to the 1-2.5 mph speed for trolling plus it’s hard on the big motor to run at idle all day. (I have nearly the same boat as Tom - 18’ Alumacraft Competitor)

Tom, have you ever fished Castle Rock or Petenwell?

What are your thoughts on the new rapala rap v blade

Really enjoy your show.... Why do you leave all the rod holders out when ur jigging?

Tom, do you ever just swim the swimbait just off bottom, stopping occasionally to let it sink to the bottom?

What speed do you like jigging 0.5 mph or less in the spring & 1.0mph summer?

You should fish northern Minnesota

Obviously we haven't met Since I don't think I'll get tom's informative answers to my general questions how bout I give them to you? ready? Are you fishing in Minnesota? which part? what's the water like right now there? In southeastern michigan where I'm fishing it's great to get the rods out any time of day, next question would be Tom speaks of three particular plastics, in yyour own individual opinion if you utilize plastics which. wouuld you refer or reccomend or what's been working for you? Do you think the fish surface a bit better when its raining or dry? Last question do you fish in muddy waters, what's that like? What's your individual separate view regarding live & artificial bait? I utilize both, I try to go with what I can afford I'm just a blue collar fishing novice not an expert but I value your opinion so please take the floor. Please be my guest and share your authorative here, I'm not speaking from the black or white, or any other lives matter standpoint but here your response does matter. Tom's explanatory presentation did help.

I have a okuma c30 is that about same size as the 2000

What reels are you using? I have been blowing the drags out of mine fishing that snap technique. Reels are fine and then all of a sudden the drag just is gone. Have tried lews, Okuma, Pflueger, and kastking. Higher end models all end up doing the same thing.

What do you use for bait for a night bite

Thanks again for the awesome video. honestly, how do you have so much technical knowledge already?

Boat positioning for these shallow flats / rock bars / points would be a great video. Particularly when there’s a 8-15+ MPH wind like I’ve been dealing with in Northern Wis for the last 3 days. Just curious to know how you attack spots with the wind. Thanks!

Tom I’d like to know what you’re doing with your boat while you’re swimming these baits.

@TomBoley

Drifting. Or spot locked. Or working and edge. Depends on the spot not technique

You should fish Round Or LCO just using the Navionics app, showing us beginner anglers we don’t need SI or DI to have success.

Millie is hit hard with walleye restrictions again this year. No keepers, no live bait, no targeting walleye in july I believe.

Hi Tom, You have a very noisy reel. It doesn't seem to affect your fish catching but it would annoy the hell out of me.
