In our last episode we talked early spring Eyes in the shallows and bass fishing for spring Walleye.  Now we discuss that open water option that most Walleye anglers can relate too.  Trolling for the big girls at night in early spring can be life changing.  Post spawn monsters looking pack on the pounds are ready to eat and we are here to help!

Early spring and the ice is GONE! We are all ready to hit the water and now we need the fish to cooperate.  Walleye guys you need to hit up your bass buddies and ask them where they are fishing this time of year and what they are using.  You would be amazed at how many Walleyes the Bass guys catch in early spring.  Lets dive into early spring Bass fishing for Walleyes.

Is it luck or is it skill, or is that critical intersection where preparedness meets luck?  In this episode we talk about some lucky times where we have caught big fish or had a strong finish in a tournament.  Some say it's luck and others love to believe it's all their skill but in the end maybe it's as simple as being prepared to be lucky.  For more of this episode subscribe to THE NEXT LEVEL and listen to an additional hour of All Eyes on Fishing.     https://aeof.supercast.tech/

The debate rages.  Is it better to box and weigh fish or is it better to do catch, photo and release fish.  The tournament fishing world is split and it mostly goes along species lines.  The Bass guys try and squeeze out every ounce while the Walleye guys don't mind the length to weight conversion.  Off Shore tournament guys need to weigh in on the topic.  Change is coming and how that looks it up for debate.     More of this episode can be hear at www.aeof.supercast.tech Subscribe today for hundreds of extended episodes discussing your favorite topics and methods for catching fish.  

For all you fans of Heavy Metal...this is your time of year!  No I am not talking about Metalica.   I am referring to the spoon bite.  This is where glide baits may not be the best presentation.  Heavy spoons jolting off the bottom and quickly fluttering back to the bottom can be an amazing way to slay fall walleye!   Check out The Next Level at AEOF.supercast.tech  

It's that time of year when the water temps begin to cool and the fish are getting REALLY hungry.  The water temps are in the 50's and the fish are holding onto that summer pattern.  Fish are being caught using jigs and bait and they are still fairly scattered on flats.  But WAIT...any day now those fish are going to start finding their friends on sharp breaks and deeper structure and they will start eating everything in sight.  The fall bite is just around the corner!   For more All Eyes Podcast on this topic and many more, subscribe at  AEOF.supercast.tech
