How to Fish Swimbaits for Summer Walleyes - Walleye Fishing
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- Swimbaits are one of the most versatile baits for all species, everything eats a swimbait. In this video I walk through the rod/reel, line, baits and cadence that I use when fishing this way. Ripping plastics excels in the summer period. If you haven't had much confidence in plastics this video should really help you out. Thanks for watching and please subscribe and leave some comments below on what you would like to see. Thanks

Tom, you have finally struck the perfect balance of information and fish catching footage. Absolutely the perfect informational video about a technique that I have never seen before. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us. I will be trying this technique out tomorrow on Lake Erie.
How did it work on Erie?
@@nobert6318 Hey Nick, there were 3-4 footers on the lake and I was drifting like 1.2 mph, but I used the swimbait on a 1/2 oz jighead and casted downwind. To my surprise I did catch a walleye, a perch and a few sheephead. It was hardly the right conditions, but the technique still worked. I can't wait to try it under better conditions.
You are diffenantly my favorite walleye TH-cam fisherman.. thank ya.
Thanks for watching
Tom Boley...as always perfect information and instruction video. Thanks for all the effort you put in to show us all these awesome video's! 👍👍👍
Kindest regards.
Love the content......you are informative and entertaining. Thanks for letting us ride along.
Great tip, better than shiners! Ripping not always needed I found, they pick them up off bottom. Thanks Man!
If you watch most fishing shows it like they don’t want to fully explain what they’re doing so they don’t give away all their techniques or something. Thank you for explaining in depth different techniques. Sub’d
Thank you for showing the graph on most of your vids!!
love it as always, information is gradeA and gotta love some mille lacs love which you always show
thanks for watching
Yes, thanks for discussing your rig set up. Very helpful. I love to fish swim baits but have never snap fished them. I am going to give it a try.
Great video, like said before perfect balance of information/entertainment. A killer technique for the entire open water season. Thanks for the great content
Such a great teacher! I have watched dang near every video you have made!
That was awesome and some good sized walleyes! Sweet!
It was a pleasure to meet you out on mille lacs . You sure make fishing look easy . Hope someday we can get on the water together and put some fish in the boat.
Good meeting you. Enjoy vacation.
My 4 year old son caught a 29 inch walleye on a drift yesterday morning with his little ugly stick push button rod . He set the hook and reeled it in all by himself. He wouldn't let me touch his rod . Really proud of the boy. We did really well drifting leeches and trolling purple shad raps or purple flicker minnows . Hope the Hayward bite is hot for ya this week. Take care bud.
Thank you! Very informative all we need to know about swim bait video. Mille Lacs has some beautiful Walleye's.
Awesome info Tom ! Caught my New PB Walleye on the big pond after watching your last Spring walleye Vid on jigging techniques, Such a Fun bite !
Good work
The allantic ocean?
Just awesome information to absorb!!!! This guy is awesome keep up the great work Tom 👍
Great detailed info!
Thanks
Good job love the informational videos
Thanks again for the great info Tom!
Top notch Tom always enjoy your videos
Thanks for watching
Hi Tom. I want a boat just like that so bad might take me a year or too but IAM so gonna get it done, thanks for the great videos !!!
Love your vids and how instructional and informative you make them on top of fishing for Walleye
I’ve been trying to target them in TableRock Lake in Missouri
My son and I happened to find them around a bridge piling feeding on shad in 54 FOW
The bite went to zilch after two weeks so now we’re trying other spots now to find the baitfish
We are going to try your slip bobber tactics and see what we can hit
We don’t have spotlock so will throw a marker and make drift attempts with the bobbers
It’s a deep body of water lots of rock ledge shores falling off into really deep water
Still Learning our Hummingbird and wanting to upgrade to a Helix 12
Awesome! Very nice walleye! I live in NC and have taken a few trips into Canada on a fly in only secluded lake out of Earfalls. That was about 10 years ago and I used big swim baits and had great luck using them back then. First year I went it was still snowing on us in June and I almost froze to death being from North Carolina. The guys I went with all worked for Johnsonville.
Great informative vid man
Thanks
that was awesome!! Great footage and always best when you catch as you demonstrate the technique. Trying it this weekend. Cheers
Very cool as always . thanks for the knowledge.
awesome video. gotta love that reaction bite
good lesson, thank you
Thanks for watching
Awesome video, been looking into walter fishing lately normally just a bass guy.
Good luck.
Nice video. Very informative too! Can't wait to get out there and get hooked up!
Love the swim bait fishing!
Great content, Tom! I love seeing what type of rod, reel, and line that you are using! I think it’s very important! Keep it up!
Awesome vids! So true that you need to trigger strikes some days with plastics versus just swimming them back to the boat or shore.
Plastics day in day out get be more fish
@@TomBoley Hey Tom. I'm going to start guiding in the near future and was wondering if you could send some specs on your boat.
!!!!!! SWEET VID !!!!
Thanks for watching
Hey Tom!! What kind of rod, reel, line are you using?? lol You said you get asked about it on every video so I thought I'd do my part and ask. lol Yeah, I know, 10,000 comedians out of work and your stuck with me.
Keep up these great teaching videos.
Thanks for the info!!!
Awesome!
hahaha would have loved to watch this video about a week ago LOL
Great video! 👍
good info thanks
I've been looking for an informative, "fluff-free" fishing channel to learn how to be a better fisherman. This is a great channel. Thank you Tom.
I fish Winnebago mostly, I think I'm going to give this a try. Any special time of year for swim baits?
great show dude . your a dude.
Thanks for watching
Badass video dude
Something about fishing huge lakes like that turns me off
I love fishing my cover in smaller bodies of water
I am the opposite
@@TomBoley probably because we both grew up doing them, it's like smoking a pack of reds your whole life and switching to menthal lol
Great info 👍. Love your info on type of line an especially how to use fish the bate an how the combination produces, once again great job. Do you ever do one on fresh water strippers?
Tom love your videos what kind of super glue is that gorilla
Aye man, any tips for fishing the great lakes, specifically Traverse city/sleeping bear national lakeshore. Most people just go out for salmon and lake trout/smallies, but i gotta believe that theres some walleye out there. You probably get alot of questions, so ill keep asking. Fish on!
What are you looking for when you decide to use this technique? Is it time of year/weather driven or are you seeing certain baitfish, schools or structure on your electronics that you Target with this technique?
Are you spot locked or are you still trolling and if you are trolling at what speed? Snap jigged a limit of walleyes on Gull last week with your jogging rap video advice. Love the videos
Spotlocked. Good work!
New sub here. Wouldn't mind hearing some tactics for reservoir eyes.
Do you use this technique while anchored, drifting or trolling? Thanks great video, too bad we can't keep any fish anymore.
Love these videos, Tom. In many of them, including this one at :15, 3:35, & 9:29, you like to say '? off, fish on' when you hook up. I just can't seem to make out what that first word is. Anyone? Thanks.
hes saying “hooked up”
Tanned hands,lots of time on the water for sure
Im catching walleye down here in GA. They are so much thicker than what I see caught up north. I wonder if its a bait thing of a dna thing.
Tom can i do this technique in lake Erie in 40 ft
Im a Columbia River walleye fisherman but i have never tried jigging a swimbait but will give it a try now. I couldn't quite tell, were you anchored, drifting or under some sort of power?
u ever notice the walleyes, look like there starving at mille, lacs? they always look so skinny, or is that from them trying to get through the gill nets?
Seems to be a year to year thing. Also they are just about as thin as they can be this tome of year
Could this technique work in the grass/reeds as well? Maybe have to rig it differently?
You know they make weedless swimbait hooks right?????
Great video! Swimbaits are my favorite. Do you ever just cast and retrieve with swimbaits or do you typically rip em?
I don't fish them that way much. Except for smallmouth
Wheres "out here"? Would these work on Winnebago, if so where on Winnebago?
Nice vid. What kinda jig head are you using?
Hey Tom what was the simms jacket you were beginning in the video? Is it the 2018 challenger?
Whats is your best depht To snap jigging thank you
Bro you need to quit wearing long sleeves in the sun that tan line was killing me
Do you ever put a worm on the hook
Get tip on the crazy glue!
Would this technique work early June in Wisconsin? Lake I fish most is at average about 6.5 feet? Anchor on ipilot and cast rock piles in the lake?
Absolutely
Tom how long does it take for that crazy glue to dry on swim bait
No kidding
Shout out to Jason Brenic for the Piscifun Carbon X woot woot 🙌
Dudes the man
When would you switch to a split tail rather than a paddle tail?
Luke Johnson I typically fish a split tail in colder water temps and once the water hits the 60° mark then switch to a paddle tail. Not an expert by an means but that’s what has worked well for me!
Interchangeable
Where in summer do u wear guide gear jacket n pants?
Must not have been summer.....
@@TomBoley lol here on lake erie we wear gear for most the year
MAGA, your making fishing great again!
Now are you anchored down
Spot locked
No 4’ weeds I see . Where are u fish now
What rod are you using
St Croix Mojo Bass Spinning Rod
When your on a lake with a lot of vegetation, do you use a different head style or hook your body different?
Not really I will rip jig through some pretty thick stuff
Thanks mann
WHAT'S UR FAVORITE LENGTH OF SWIMBAIT?
My wife's so sick of me saying "Hooked up, Fish on". Of course I say it after sex though....
That's all I use.. 5.8" rythen waves..
fallow me on NPS or fish brain

Minnesotas #1 walleye shore fisherman. I'll out fish you from shore
What water temp would you be looking for to start fishing this technique?
50 to 80
