Mastering Spring Walleye Fishing With Jerkbaits | Pro Tips And Techniques
Join Wired2fish contributor Scott Walsh as he dives into springtime walleye fishing using jerkbaits. Throughout the year, especially post-spawn, a large population of walleye set up in the shallows to feed on baitfish. Walsh demonstrates how the combination between modern electronics and jerkbaits effectively put walleye in the boat.

UTILIZING MODERN TECHNOLOGY
Exploring the benefits of advanced fishing technology, Walsh incorporates tools like high definition mapping, MEGA 360 sonar, and forward-facing sonar to pinpoint the ideal fishing spots and individual fish without wasting time. He shares insights into how these technologies not only assist in locating fish but also in making informed decisions about bait changes based on the fish's behavior towards the lure.
EXPERT TECHNIQUES FOR JERKBAIT FISHING
Walsh highlights the unique response of walleye to jerkbaits compared to smallmouth, noting their aggressive strikes that provide a thrilling experience. He emphasizes the importance of using a jerkbait with a larger profile and three hooks to maximize the chances of securing these fish. Additionally, Walsh discusses how a slight breeze can enhance the jerkbait's effectiveness by mimicking the natural movement of prey, making it irresistible to walleye.

For real, I hate that it exists. If you got the $ and a basic ability to learn technology, and basic fishing skill, you can just go find fish with zero guesswork. It's pretty damn close from turning it from "fishing" to "catching".
O no way , lovin the walleye switch up
Awesome video
Yes Sir! I'm an absolute jerkbait nut. If I can use a jerkbait at all, I will. Home lake is Bull Shoals in Arkansas, it's a clean clear rocky lake and jerkbaits work well year round. I even use a jerkbait for walleyes in the river. Most people don't even realize walleye are in there, they think just trout, so most people never even try for them in the river. They eat the small stocker rainbow trout, so a rainbow trout jerkbait is deadly!
what rod and reel is that sir, thank you
