I do this frequently. The rattle helps. Even rippin raps work. I do lock the main motor in and turn on trolling motor about 3.5 to steer. Don't have to worry as much.
Thanks for another great video, Tom. I've been unmotivated lately and haven't had the drive to get my boat out lately. This lit a little fire under me. I'm going out this evening!
One thing i would suggest is being very organized/ familiar with your boat and your gear placement. It doesnt take long trolling that close to shore with a double on for things to go sideways.
Trolling is pretty bad on the inland ohio lakes. there is 1 or 2 that are decent because they actually have weeds... Ohio river is really good until the water lvl lowers too much.
Great video run a 2090 my self here’s the question we’re you turning with your big motor ? I’d put that in lock and just run it with the trolling motor
Could someone answer a question for me? I have a bunch of crank baits, I rarely use them in general, and Im not sure which ones are which. I know the bigger the lip/bill the deeper it runs but what about the lips that go down at an angle? In general I would assume the baits with an angle cut and run deeper but Im a newby when it comes to cranks.
It really depends on the lure dive curve,...which are based on 10 pound mono at 2mph. 50 feet back. He most likely is running a foot or two off bottom. @ 35 to 40 feet back at faster speed.
@TomBoley Tom do you guide? I looked you up on internet says closed. If you are ever in Iowa I would love to book you for walleye. Either Clear Lake, Rathbun or any of our Mississippi pools. We could take my boat or your boat. I'm trying to get better at walleye fishing I could learn a lot from you!
This guy throws the fish back when they end up getting an infection and dying from the hooks what a waste hes not giving the fish to anyone or selling it the definition of animal cruelty god will be disappointed
Was at lake Pepin yesterday with my kids and dad. Limited out in abut 4 hours
I was at costco yesterday and limited out on 5 lb of walleye fillets

Trolling motor 3.5 setting or 3.5mph? Thanks!
@@donswazy setting 3.5

Nice Tom. Good job and great info, once again. Cheers

You haven't truly been fishing shallow water walleyes until you run your boat aground fishing a shallow sand flat if you ask me 😂
Tried the Arkansas Tickle Shad. 1st cast 36 inch pike.
Looks like a riot by yourself haha. Was cool to meet you at Scheels the next day. -Jon
Crazy method that works!! Wouldn’t have thought to troll that fast!
I fish a lot of Ohio inland lakes and use your same techniques for saugeyes…lift and flutter jigging. Need to try some trolling

Did the same thing on the St Croix yesterday. Scatter raps and Mag 44’s. Mostly walleyes and one great big blue cat.
I will say this though, you have it dialed in. Even down to keeping debris off the line. I use a swivel to stop from line twist if lure start rolling.
Love the new boat.
Hey Tom, I just purchased the Reef Runner 200 and 400 Rip Shad, and looking for instructions on how much line out I need to reach certain depths.
What a great boat! Nicely set up.

Heading out to munoscong today
Im sure we all could catch as many fish as you do if we could fish these remote lakes.
It's not even a lake, it's the Mississippi river
Fun video way to mix it up!
TOM "this is definitely a day we could use a co.... co.. co pilot with me.... But we would manage none the less" BOLEY
What are those red knobs on your humminbirds where they mount to the bracket? They don't look like the factory adjustment knobs
Security locks
Spoonplugging, Buck Perry would be proud. 😊
haha, i remember reading those stories in Muskoka in Ontario some 50 yrs ago, gawd i'm old
How far behind the boat are u trolling and how deep are they going to
Did you experience many snags do to trolling that close to the bank?
Great video. Where on the Mississippi River are you fishing?
Need another person in the boat, heck I'll give you my number!! Would be a long drive though.🤣
You mentioned not wanting to crash into shore...do you not have Ipilot Link on your Minn Kota? Can you not set it to follow contours?
What kind of rods are you using?
This channel is invaluable. I would have never thought to troll that fast for walleye at any time of year.
Works well is stained water systems
Even works on natural lakes, less walleyes will bite but you will keep fish coming in the bot

Are you banging bottom using a deep diving lure and fishing so shallow?
It really depends on the lure dive curve,...which are based on 10 pound mono at 2mph. 50 feet back. He most likely is running a foot or two off bottom. @ 35 to 40 feet back at faster speed.
What speed your trolling bud ?
I don’t doubt your loving the boat. When you own a glass boat it’s hard to go back to aluminum
Hit a rock you’ll find out real fast 😂😂😂 aluminum boats are tanks not as stable tho
@@ronniekepler6731 Lots of rock up here Ronnie , you just have to be smarter than the rock
How far back are you trolling baits ?
20 to 40
Tom help!...what's your best solution for line twist?.
Are you talking about line twist on a spinning reel? Or a straight spool like the reels Tom had in the video/bait caster?
I use a Piscifun line spooler for my spinning reels, haven’t had a problem with line twist in years, love it!
@be2894 spinning reels...I am currently attaching a barrel swivel above the bait but it doesn't seem to help..thank you for responding.
@@be2894 I will definitely get a line spooler..ty for the response.
Tom i got a question? What is the brand of your boat ?
Warrior 2090 tiller
Almost 5 km/h🤯
What depth water are you in?
Shallow 3 to 7 feet

If you’re trolling that fast you need high quality crank baits, The cheap ones will blow out.
Sorry commented before you covered it at 13:20
With waves/against waves make any difference?
With is better
Nice
When northern bago. :)
Would this work on a lake this time of year?
Yes.
What depth are you running in? Are your baits ticking bottom?
4 to 6 feet of water.
🎣
Would love to see u in Ohio inland lakes or like not lake Erie, just to prove there's walleye there and how to do it🥸
i learned this is how you smack your 90k fiberglass on a rock a few years ago.
recommend use a shitty jonboat for this :3
Great video but I wish you would do more catch and cooks. Alot of fisherman think it's not ok to eat what you catch.😊
This is getting out of control for a guy like me, sure I miss one on the double 😂
