How to Catch Summer Walleyes ANYWHERE!

- Today we are back with another video from Minnesota. In this video the summer dog days are in full effect and fishing can be very hit or miss during this time of year. In this video I talk about pulling spinner rigs and how you can cover water to catch more mid summer walleyes. Trolling for walleye is super productive when the fish are a bit more scattered. Summer walleye fishing can be some of the more challenging fishing of the season but they are still very catchable. Thanks for watching!

Good morning from Illinois you walleye heads
How's the Bass fishing? 😏
@@rite2beararms 30+walleyes 20+ sauger in one day. ID say the "bass" fishing is great on the Illinois river. Fuckin clown
@@aleckrug1554 my, aren't we sensitive! Just saying that because I have alot of family in Southern Il, and they love Bass Fishing. Calm down and eat a Tide pod. It'll make you feel better.
@@rite2beararms thought you were trying to trash talk Illinois walleye. My bad
Must of been the weird face
Thanks for the time you put on the road, unloading and loading the boat, getting up each day motivated to get great content, tons of equipment to maintain, etc...
I’m sure a lot of people think it’s a gravy job and easy to do, and like all jobs it’s has the pros and the cons.
Appreciate the videos a lot!!
7am upload is perfect for work, I’ll click that notification every morning 😅
I've been watching a few of your videos, and how in the world are you fishing in dog days of summer with zero water skiers, wakeboarders, jet ski's, and high speed boaters flying around you as you are fishing. I'm from Michigan and that is all you get all summer long on all the bodies of water with significant numbers of walleye. It's ridiculous, very difficult to fish in those conditions. So is it they don't allow high speed boating in Minnesota or Wisconsin, it's a crazy thing to see that so much. Wish it was so here, good videos fun to watch.
Thank you Tom another great video. Please keep giving us shots of your grafts, identifying bottom hardness, and images of the fish relating to the structure. Thanks again...."Fish On" LOL.
Tom you just jumped over 81K subs. You are climbing and I'm very happy for you. Such great content.
Nice video! Love that you’re jumping the boarder and fishing MN.
Great content again! Thank you for more good exercises to increase our odds during these summer months
Another great video , never disappointed , always informative . Keep up the good work Tom.
82k subs, congrats! Been with ya since you had less than 10k. Great content to learn from, keep it up
As always great information!with out a doubt the best fishing channel on TH-cam!
Gotta love the “dog days of summer” vids. Hardest time for me to catch eyes. Always so encouraging to see you pounding them. Also I don’t think I’m alone when I say. Time for some lake trout vids!! Thanks Tom
Love to see some more lead core fishing Tom. Great video (s) Thanks Dan
Great video Tom, watching from Canada 🇨🇦. Using your info to catch more eyes. Thanks.
Hey Tom! I love your videos and am really excited to see less videos with better quality. I have to say that's what I watch for to begin with. Keep up the amazing work friend!
Agree, I've tried fishing flowages lately these past years during mid summer and man it is tough fishing. Went back to basics, live bait, and trolling always does the job.
I really enjoyed watching that video. You added some great explanations and instructional tips that were very important. Overall a great Dog-Day video and what to try on days like that. Thanks Mr. "Fish On" Walleye Magnet🎣👍 Your an incredible fisherman, it's amazing to watch you in action, also very enjoyable for me personally as I can't fish right now due to a temporary medical condition, but watching you really helps. THANKS!!!
I'm looking forward to seeing you have a tough time. Then I can relate and see what you do.
Tanks you Tom ,from Québec Canada
Thumbs up right off that bat for getting that beat ! 🎼 keep up the great content man !
The Bay is fire right now Tom!!
Love the slow real up, not air pocket them out and gentle release
Honestly, I would like to see a video where you have to switch tactics multiple times. That is real summer walleye fishing.
Lots of good info in this video. Enjoyed and learned something. With this heat you should load up an ice fishing video.
What a great eating fish those Walleyes are...Used to eat them when I lived in Colorado...Not served in any restaurants where I live now.
I love! the upgrade Bluetooth remote.. let’s see some more trolling or smallie/crappie bite.
Always super informative! It'd be interesting to know the techniques you tried that did NOT work before you figured out this pattern.
Funny I was on Pastakee last week super hot presentations weren’t working so instead I trolled not a spinner harness but cranks. Also because fish were scattered I didn’t use sonar or Di I used the map… I noticed the depth the eyes were hanging and used the map only to make passes Over areas I spotted fish 4 hours of fishing one fish then an hour of trolling BAM BAM BAM HOKED UPPPPPP
Awesome video ! Love the content
Noticed you haven’t had your dog lately. Hopefully all is ok. Love your videos 👍. Great info
Hi Tom. It's exactly what i am witnessing. They are down deep and really spread out. Barely bitting. Water temps of 74F on the ottawa river.
went out on lake erie 2 times this week... limited out in 2 and 3 hours ... crazy action
I have a Daiwa sealine and really like it
Nice to hear what lake you're on. I'm from Minnesota. What does Milacs let you have now, one fish. What a joke. Didn't see what reels you were using in the description. Enjoy your videos. Thanks
Dog days I go shallow on dirty lakes. Pound them in 6fow July-August
Hey you should try to run your bottom bouncers off a plainer board. When the bite is slow for us we use this all the time get rig away from boat, works like a beast. Better for Great Lakes so you can run two rods each
Do it all the time in states with more than 1 line
How do you stay comfortable on the lake giving the weather conditions. Speak to your clothing; what you eat and drink. As well as how to keep your bait alive.
Great video as always . What length minkota do you use on your alumicraft ? I notice they ride a little higher in the bow ?
Very informative video! Could you point me to that reel, I think you said Okuma magda, I noticed it had one handle, MA-30DX?
Ok Tom, if you are up for a challenge, I challenge you to take a look at The Whitefish Chain of Lakes. It’s just north of Brainerd by about 1/2 of an hour. I empty my tackle box each and every time I fish it. If I get 1 decent fish a year, I’ve had a good year.
It's a cold water bite... spring and fall bud
What's the name of your boat?
I was thinking about using "Hooked Up" but I wouldn't if you already are.
I've enjoyed watching your videos for a couple of years.
Keep up the good work!
this is my favorite color for summer walleye fishing... work in every lake in Abitibi-Temiskaming
Tom, do you ever put a crankbait behind your bottom bouncer?
Nice. Appreciate you showing the rigging. I didn’t catch it ? U we’re using crawlers on the spinner? Fish On Hooked Up!!
What speed where you pulling the bottom bouncers?
for my personal experiences around 0.7 tp 1.1 mph
Tom you HAVE to do a return to Gull Lake summer vid,(with an operational trolling motor this time)would like to see how you do on a not so windy of a day.
do you accept the challenge?
How fast were you trolling? Were you using your big motor or electric trolling motor? What bait were you using-live bait or plastics? Thanks
We run bottom bouncers with crawler harness too but we get our worms smoked by perch & sunnies,,,,,,, so HOW do you prevent your baits from getting annihilated by those pesky little ones?
You also seem to be fishing deeper then us usually.
Also, just started watching your channel and I love the content,,, especially when you show the graph as I'm not very good at reading the graph.
Rig a soft plastic worm. I like using a wyandotte crawler Pinch it off like you would a crawler. Solves the sunny, crappie, perch problem. I find the eye's bite just as good using the plastics, assuming they have good action (slow death hook). Hope this helps, man.
He mentions in earlier videos to switch to leeches because they are tougher
I noticed the meg 360 sitting in the bottom of the boat. at slow trolling speeds will it not work. Blurry image i suspect.
Tom, do you have any video on trolling for largemouth bass ?
New to fishing what is a good line counter and rod for a budget?
What speed do you find works?
Sorry I ran out of space in the last comment section but I want to say two things:" LUCKY BLUE" & "GREAT FISH' to end that video Tom!!!
Sorry if I missed it what speed
Just curious, why do you have a kicker motor, if you never use it? Just got a backup? Just in case? Please tell us
Do you set the drag looseish and then they hook themselves, then you just tighten up a bit when reeling in?
Always easier to tighten the drag.. then realize when they run.. it is too tight...
👍👍👍👍👍
If you are trolling with your trolling motor, what batteries do you recommend? I definitely cannot troll very long with the batteries I have. I just wasn’t sure if you were using your big motor on this particular trip.
I’d go with Interstate Batteries! SRM-27 or SRM-31
We want to see the struggle! That's what 90% of summer fishing is. Especially if you are not near a destination walleye lake.
Not sure how you can troll a harness without holding onto it. How do you ever know when the panfish have stolen your crawler?
How fast are you trolling
Thank you! What speed are you running?
Guessing 1-1.5
What model and length boat?
Anyone can catch walleye on mille lacs, go to white bear lake or any lake in the cities
I’m from upstate NY. Planning a trip to Wisconsin and the Minnesota in September. Any of you walleye masters got advice?
If they ain’t up shallow, you should try deeper
When you get to Minnesota, take a hard right and head to Ontario
Trolling works best
I wouldn’t mind seeing Wisconsin go down to 2 lines per angler during open water season. It may not be coincidence why MN has more walleye
Why the change in boats from the Warrior? Any particular reason?
It fishes way better in big water
I see a new ipilot link remote
Tom how fast is "trolling really slow?"
1mph
Apologize if I missed it, leeches or crawlers?
crawler harness
I'm headed to Northern Wisconsin Sat. NELMA area. Looking to fish Butternut and North and South Twin lakes. Any advise for Smallmouth and Walleye?
If you're ever in SW Missouri. We can find ya some walleye.. yes. Even that south!
Butternut ruined years ago by too many people taking smallies out of there instead of getting replicas . Twins are up and down on walleyes right now 74 water temp this morning , not a normal year on twins
@@scottb9387 Thanks for the info! So if I wanted to go after smallmouth. What lake would you recommend taking my 3 boys to? Reasonable distance from Nelma.
@@iowasilvia smoky has lots 12 thru 14 " to keep kids busy and not far .. butternut still has them too but lots trophies taken out
Smokey launch is on Wisconsin side plenty of water to cover . Please get replicas instead of taking a trophy out of there if you get one
@@scottb9387 I thought that Smallmouth were protected up there? Couldn't keep?
I'm from SW Missouri and primarily fish for walleye and crappie on the lakes here. But river/creek fish for smallies . We NEVER keep bass here. They take too long to grow to trophy size! They are a blessing to catch! We say free the fighter down here! Let em go, let em grow! Long live the bronze backs!
Cold waters are horrible reels. Bad drags outta the box.
I love fishing live the fishing in mn, but I wish they would get with the times and allow 2 rods.
We all do
Ditto for two rods!
@@jimmyhoffa7935 we are allowed 2 in sd and 4 in the winter
@@jimmyhoffa7935 I agree but it would be nice to have the option to use more than one. I agree that sometimes more rods adds to screw ups. We use to call it the “Two rod syndrome”. LOL!!
Invite: Hey Tom
I would like to extend an offer for you and your wife to come to Vermont and fish beautiful Lake Champlain. A great work vacation where you can catch walleyes and stay for free at my lake house. I live in the northern part of Lake Champlain where we have some of the best multi species fishing in country. I also think it would be cool to see some of your videos in other places. This is an open invitation for anytime. Thanks Bob
Wow,that was pretty cool on the invite,hopefully Tom comes up,that would be a good show.
St.Lawrence river would be good for a show also.Walleyes big time
Thanks I agree. It would be fun to see Tom take his show on the road and both of these locations would provide great fishing.
@@bobwest7599 hey Bob,are you fishing much up that way.I’m at Willsboro,I’ve been fishing Lakers and salmon down here.
Yes. I’m in Grand Isle and primarily fish largemouth, smallmouth , walleye and pike. Occasionally will fish for Lakers and salmon.
One line per person? Thats why its slow fishing
I only want 2 rods 11'6 and he is saying he has 9..🤣
All those rods and gear.. and only able to use 1 at a time🙄
Since I don't see or hear any other boats.. there probably all at Bitter or Waubay🤣🤣
@@dennysmith5235 Fished Bitter on a Thursday a couple weeks ago and was surprised how many boats were there. Lots of pressure this year.
Yes.. the traveling circus 🎪 is making its rounds 🤣
The best piece of equipment to use on bitter or Waubay is a good set of binoculars or as we call them “South Dakota fish finders”
@@bigdaddybruce5634 I dont use binoculars i use the net and that gets people's attention.
Anywhere? Really?
You talk to fast for me.
