Walleye Fishing Tips and Techniques

Walleye Fishing Tips and Techniques

The best walleye fishing tip is that walleyes are usually found on or near bottom. Jigs and spinners with twisters, artificial grubs or minnows works best. Now let me give you some really good walleye fishing tips. First the walleye are found at the bottom- not in it. Drop your bait to the bottom, bounce it a couple of times, lift it an inch or two off the bottom, now sit tight for a few seconds. Its this action that will attract the fish and cause them to bight. I have literally caught thousands of walleye using this technique. sometimes the fish are not right at the boat, they are a few feet away. Now is the time to cast. Cast 10-30 feet away to where the fish are let the lure sink to the bottom, when it hits let it sit there for a second, then reel in a couple of cranks, then let it sit again. This slow start and stop retrieval gains excellent results. It is perhaps my favourite technique and usually combine it with the first technique when the fish are active. This information can be quite helpful especially if your group is having a walleye fishing tournament.
