Well Tom, As I shared with you right after your first video in your garage on the Warrior Tiller rigs: “You Will Not Go Back to Anything Else” (for me, since fall ‘96). Boat control, fish ability, ride, et. all; is the best there is. Glad you like it.
Tom I remember when you ran your Alumacraft and you loved that one too! Glad you got a nice new boat! You got to do a few river drift trips on the Bitteroot or the Clarkfork!
Love the video as always! As a pretty avid fisherman myself I totally understand what you’re describing as how the new boat handles the heavy wave action BUUUT for the every day person with the every day budget 100k is a bit more expensive than the old tin can tillers that the majority of people can afford. But as always thanks for all the great content and tips for the walleye angling world!!
Hey Tom. Love the videos. Tried to get on the seminar in Billings but it sold out the day they made it public. If you go to Fort Peck, make sure you have a rock guard to protect that nice boat. You will love the fishing there. Big fish!!
Love the Hayward area videos since I can relate to them. The small lake videos are really helpful as I have a hard time finding walleye on the big clear lakes. Throw out some crappie finding tips if you come across some. I still go back and watch your crappie videos.
Well Tom ... Love that your part of the Warrior Family. I would love to talk and share 2090 tidbits. Tight lines and look forward to another day in the Warrior!
Ha ha... small lake crowd.. The guy in the pontoon was thinking the same thing Tom. At least he respected your space. Also those life jackets are for more than decorations, pull one out and keep it in your line of sight.. Take care of yourself
Your starting to change my mind about console boats…….I’ve liked that Warrior since the first day you started using it! The room in the galley is phenomenal.
Hi Tom, my husband and I purchased 2 spots at Scheels for your seminar in Sioux Falls, Sd but forgot about it until 9pm that night. I was hoping with a picture of our tickets if you could point us in the right direction for fishing on the Missouri, Lake Francis case.
Eating spring caught walleye chowder while watching Tom catch summertime walleyes 😂 cookie cutter walleye sandwich 🥪 Tom we need a shore lunch again my guy on the channel
He's said a few times to make sure the crawler is threaded over the swivel/clasps... It only works until the crawler falls down. Ridiculous if you ask me.
Tom This fall can you do a review on the carbon reels. I’m still fishing the old stuff since I found year a 3 years ago now. Maybe after a year of using them you could do this for the channel.
Hi Tom, I picked up a handful of the Search Baits and love them with one exception. They're so smooth it's really tough to tell if the spinner is running right or not (you don't feel the same thumping vibration on the rod tip like you do other blade rigs. Running St. Croix Avid MLXF 6-8' or similar) and I'm finding when casting them more than half the casts the trailing hook wraps up around the bait body. So, my question is, what are you doing to prevent this when making those long search and destroy casts, or is this simply operator error? Thanks Tom, your content is truly great stuff for the guy that's obsessed but doesn't necessarily have the time to fish as much as he'd like! Tight lines and thanks for helping put extra fish in my boat!
@@TraeClifton I thought about adding a small piece of heat shrink tubing around the back half of the swivel ending just onto the hook shank, but that would entirely eliminate the possibility/action of using the slow death hook. Unless there's another solution, I think I'll try that because I don't have much confidence that they're consistently running true unless I drop them straight off the side of the boat while trolling. Another option would be to eliminate the swivel altogether, I guess.
@@johnscott6745 I am having the same issue. I would say 25+ % of the time, it gets wrapped up. I do have the slow death hook on, might change to the other hook?
@@TomBoley thanks for the reply. I found it works well when I have other people in the boat. Easier to keep track of the fish movement and where to have them casting to.
@@TomBoleymost of what I fish doesn’t have large flats but has steep drips so 360 probably virtually useless to me. Planning garmin on my next and livescope down the road.
On the boat Tom, how does the Big HP tiller troll, is the Glass boat heavy enough to slow you down so you can pull cranks with the big motor if you want to be around 2 mph. With my competitor 185, my 140 will only get down to about 2.5 unless there is a good wind.
Everyone made fun of me for searching for a tiller boat but I got a deal on a grizzly tracker with a 40 mercury jet motor. But when we fish walleyes it’s always from the back of the boat and my next boat will be a tiller for sure.
Tom, you've been my go to guy to learn everything walleye. I've done very well in the great lakes area. I've moved to Lake Cumberland which has a very healthy population of walleye including a world record for many years. I just can't catch them here. Your at 100 ft depths 20 yards off shore and the fish don't appear to suspend. Locals catch them in 20 ft, right against the bank bouncing the bottom. A whole yeR of fishing has noted zero walleye , but many big striper. Points under water are 90 to 100 ft deep. Shouldn't the walleye migrate here just as up north? Why don't we see schools of fish suspended? Would love to here your take on this. Deep deep lake.
Tom. Nice boat love the videos, but how about we go back to basics. Can we some diffrent Videos? Like when n shelby walked a river, or walleye from shore in spring or go after walleye with just a fishfinder nothing else kinda like what us regular ppl have
Around here this time of the year there's no way you are going out fishing and be the only boat out there. Even early in the morning.How many acres is that lake?
I've used your big 3. Each have their pros and cons. Neither is better than the other. The camera does not do any of the units justice. At the end of the day are able to utilize your equipment to catch fish. Your equipment should complement your skills not be the only reason why your catching fish.
I hear ya. Mega live has changed everything for Tom. It’s changed everything for anyone that has it too. I still watch some but not as much in the past.
@@workinprogress4870mega live didn't change anything. Live scope did. As garmin changed how people fish not humminbird. Humminbird just followed suit but livescope is still king. Best quality picture compared to Lowrance and Humminbird. Mega live looks really bad image quality wise
@@workinprogress4870 thanks for responding. I didn't mean to hurt anybodies feelings. I know Tom can catch walleyes without it. What ticks me of is manufacturers have made their technology to expensive for a person. I don't feel like using a credit card to go in debt. I guess I'm ranting.

Thanks for the update Tom,you deserve every bit of a boat like that. Thanks for the great Contant. Keep them coming.
Thanks for watching....and I'll do my best to keep em coming.
We’ll have to see Great Lakes lake trout trip with that warrior

Come to lake Erie in the western basin by Davis Bessie power plant with that search bait c can you catch walleyes
Hi Tom, my husband and I purchased 2 spots at Scheels for your seminar in Sioux Falls, Sd but forgot about it until 9pm that night. I was hoping with a picture of our tickets if you could point us in the right direction for fishing on the Missouri, Lake Francis case.
Oh dang. I honestly don't know a lot about Francis case...other then when I have been there in summer I fished deep points and trees and caught fish.
I swear, you’re like the Bob Ross of fishing.
We need a lake trout video. Stannard rock? Lake Superior walleye video would be 🔥 too
That sounds incredible right now... Look for that video in September sometime
Nice rig Great catches
a 250HP tiller on this boat woulda been amazing.
Why need tho?

Have you had any problems with search bait hook tangled when casting?
He's said a few times to make sure the crawler is threaded over the swivel/clasps... It only works until the crawler falls down. Ridiculous if you ask me.
The eyes also fall off of them super easy, at $10.99 you wouldn’t think that would happen so fast?

Tom, could you let me know what net you are using? Thanks and great video!

I have the exact same issue. Can barely cast. Constantly gets wrapped up

Tom, do you ever use the mega 360 in conjunction with your mega live any more.
I have previously.... It works well on large shallow flats in my opinion. If you fish that way a lot definitely worth it
@@TomBoley thanks for the reply. I found it works well when I have other people in the boat. Easier to keep track of the fish movement and where to have them casting to.

Flat calm it trolls about 2.5....Most the time if I know I will be trolling all day I will bring a drift sock.

Tom, I live in Kansas and we recently had a Scheels move in to Wichita. Will you be putting on a seminar here?
Not this year maybe next!
@@TomBoley It would be great to have you fish one of the best walleye fisheries in Kansas, Wilson Lake. Hell I’d love to fish it with you!
I just did a video on the same lake! I did it with Livescope pretty crazy bite!
Please comment on progress in fixing the Walleye Now android issue.

Hi Tom, are you happy with your main motor power/make/model? Compared to the Suzuki? Thanks.
Tom when you are using a quarter, ounce, Are you letting it hit the bottom? Or you just pull it alone ?
in shallow I will just start reeling. In deeper depths I will let it touch bottom and then engage reel.
Thanks for the boat review! What about price? Is it comparable to other windshield fiber boats?
Yes.
What is the cable sleeve you use to protect your Mega Live cable?
A rod sleeve I cut the end off of.
What search bait rig?
Which mount is that for the live?
Linked in description.
Nice

Best rigged boat $180,000+ can buy. 😂
That is the expertise, lol
Does the price tag blow your mind too?😮😅
i hope tom isnt dipping zyn now
get back on the grizz
Not everyone can afford all that fancy equipment. How can the guy that just wants go catch a walleye with a depth/fish finder do it?
Good news video coming your way soon on that topic
I can't watch anymore because of video game fishing. NO EXPERTISE!
