Catch More Fish During the Algae Bloom
The algae bloom is a time when many anglers end up doing more harm than good by reaching for extreme colours or overly loud rattling baits. Often, because the fishing is expected to be tough, they abandon their usual tactics altogether. But the truth is, algae has been around as long as the fish themselves, and it doesn’t affect the bite as much as people think. While using slightly brighter colours or baits with a bit more noise might help, it’s rarely necessary, in my opinion. These fish have lived with algae their entire lives and certainly don’t stop feeding when it gets thick. In fact, it might even benefit the bite by extending the prime feeding light for more hours of the day.

Scientific Secret for Late Summer Walleye Fishing
มุมมอง 1.4Kวันที่ผ่านมา
We all know walleyes love eating crayfish, and dialling in on a crayfish pattern can lead to some of the most action-packed fishing you'll find. However, late September brings a fundamental change: crayfish moult and hid in the rocks. This means walleyes have less access to this forage. Keep this in mind, watch this video, and you'll save yourself a lot of frustration when targeting walleyes du...
Battling Deep Water Hogs. Vertical Fishing Lake Trout
มุมมอง 93728 วันที่ผ่านมา
Lake trout fishing in the summer is a blast. Vertical fishing is similar to ice fishing in open water for them. These fish rely on structure to corral baitfish, so focusing on deep structures is a good starting point when looking for them. The most crucial detail when searching for lake trout is locating the bait, usually ciscoes at this time of year. Once you find the bait, the lake trout won'...
How to Dropshot Finicky Walleyes (Setup and Technique Breakdown)

When it comes to catching finicky walleyes, a dropshot is my go-to, like a lock fits a key. While this technique is a staple in bass fishing, it’s still flying under the radar in the walleye world. In this video, I break down exactly how to rig and use a dropshot to help put more walleyes in the boat.

Giant Walleyes Only. How to Sharpshoot Big Feeding Walleyes
มุมมอง 2.7K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Catching big walleyes on shield waters often seems like a matter of luck for most anglers, who occasionally stumble upon large fish at their favourite walleye structures. However, there is a way to specifically target the larger fish that have adapted their behaviour due to their size. In a recent conversation on our podcast with Dr. Paul Cooley, an intriguing point was raised. Once walleyes re...

Lethal Tricks to Catch Walleyes During the Mayfly Hatch
มุมมอง 5K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
The mayfly hatch is one of the most challenging times of the year for most anglers. Why? Because walleyes switch their diet to focus almost entirely on emerging mayfly larvae. Why would a walleye chase a minnow when there’s an easy, abundant, and nutritious food source right along the bottom? Exactly - they wouldn’t. There are roughly 120 mayfly larvae in every square meter along the bottom, ma...
Exposing Hidden Walleye Migration Paths

Tracking walleyes as they move from their post-spawn locations to their summer humps can be challenging. They’re easy to lose track of until they reach their summer spots, where people are accustomed to catching them. During this time, you can use a few simple tricks as general rules to help track down walleyes during their move. In this video, I’ll show you the where, why, and how to catch mig...
Boat Positioning Is Everything. How to Maximize Your Catch Rate
มุมมอง 1K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
For most anglers, it's a common ideology to position their boat and cast towards shore. While this is a common and effective strategy, there are alternative methods. Often, when we encounter fish positioned at a specific depth, we adjust our boat's position and cast in a different direction. This ensures that our baits remain in the strike zone throughout the duration. This approach increases t...
Scientific Secrets for Post-Spawn Walleye Fishing

We recently had an eye-opening conversation with walleye biologist Nick Baccante, who led walleye research in Northern Ontario. His work was so prestigious that he presented his findings to the United Nations. From Nick, we learned that post-spawn spring walleyes can be very predictable when you know exactly where to find them. Here are a few key insights to help you locate these fish. First, y...
Easiest Way to Catch Spring Smallmouth Bass
มุมมอง 5854 หลายเดือนก่อน
Imagine a smallmouth bass transitioning from its summer habitat and behaviours to its winter ones. As the season changes, they begin feeding heavily in preparation for winter and move to deeper waters. In the spring, this transition happens in reverse. They migrate to shallower waters in search of warmth and food. Having hardly eaten all winter, these fish are now starving and feed voraciously....

That’s key information!📝 Thank you Liam!!😎
You're using the right brand of boat, that's for sure
I always here a couple times a summer out of the NW Angle, all the older guys say the crayfish are molting, do they molt multiple times a summer, is there truth to this?
I want to try a casting reel because i baought a spinner and realized it would be bad in starting fishing area due to low casting control.
Experienced the algae bloom on Callander Bay, Lk Nipissing a few weeks ago, fishing was very good, fish didn’t seem affected.
👏🙏
Thanks for the info!
As a supplement to your point about fish finding your lure in the bloom, consider this. Before the walleye night fishing ban went into effect, Mille Lacs Lake launches took clients out at night to the deep mudflats. The popular method of fishing was a slip bobber rig and a leech. They caught tons of walleye over many decades. Think about it, the fish are 20 to 30 feet deep. It's pitch black dark night. A leech, which is black in color, is the bait. How the heck does the walleye find a black leech, 20 feet down, at midnight? I don't know but they do find that leech and eat it. I often wondered if the fish can see the leech in the dark or if they feel its swimming motion? I don't know.
🔥🔥😎 Beautiful work Liam!
20# braid the size of #6 mono? No fluoro leader?
👏🙏
🔥🔥🔥 Gracias Liam! 😎
Thanks for the great tips it will definitely help
This bait is awesome. I caught so many bass on this. My #1 lure this summer. Its incredible. The trick is the right jig head. You want a jig head with a wire keeper. The worm color called bama craw is the best color i think. Thank you crush city.
Good video. Salt impregnated. Salt sinks. Stretch rubber to lessen the salt content = more floatation.
Let’s goooo liam
First 30 seconds and I’m wondering why you haven’t blown up yet. Beautiful cinematography and b-roll! Well done sir!
I appreciate that - thank you!

Nice one Gord! 🇨🇦
Drop shot has become one of my favourite techniques for shield lake walleyes, out-fishes jigs in my experience
Fantastic information! I love how well you explained how to rig the drop shot! One question I have is on the bite: are you feeling for the bite or watching the line for movement?
what know do you use on fluro to swivel and or split ring? Trying to find a good knot for 130 lb fluoro
Really appreciate all the information and tips you pass along. Always like seeing "THE Gordfather" in the videos. And I really enjoy the podcasts you guys have been doing as well. Tight lines!
I could hear the bugs buzzin!🤣🔥
👏🙏
I learn so much from you every time!! Thank you 😎🔥🔥🔥 WhetterFishing Academy
gald you brought up the Palamor knot, because i was thinking the whole time that your knot is wrong. lol Going to give this knot method a shot. cheers and appreciate the setup!!
That new knot is definitely the way to go! Nice!
What lake?
Great info..but the thumbnail was blurred for a moment, & I could have sworn you were trying to imatate a sea cumber..
Beautiful explanations, got into fishing this summer and it's easy but hard to master.
Nice presentation.....You have a future in this business!!!
That first one was a super fat one for living in the weeds!! Good vid guys!!

Awesome video!!! When will you start your fall fishing season? Looks cold out there
Just curious but do you have a biology background/education or are you just enthusiastic? Your videos are great and I really enjoy ur podcast too.
At what size do you think the go palegic?
Nice video! Sneaky jig head ;)
Aunt Nancy says hi
nice!! thanks for the tips!!
Awesome!! Epic video Liam! 👍.
Was the second fish a musky? I caught one that looked identical just smaller a couple weeks ago. Couldn’t find anything saying if it was a pike or musky
Sorry if i missed it, but what did Gord catch his on?
💞Wow🤍🤍🧡🤍🧡🧡🧡🧡
Looked like an awesome session!
Excellent content guys!!
Lake of The Woods is where it's at! Great footage guys!
Very true, I recently caught a 31" walleye on a ned rig.
Gord is such a legend. Being Canadian Ive been reading that man's writings on fishing for about as long as I can remember.
