Catching walleyes shallow by pulling spinners behind the boat, but there are a few key things to do to increase your success.
Walleyes also grow fast in Elysian’s turbid water.
Bluegill and largemouth bass action is strong with good reports coming from shallow and deep weeds or rocks.
Both have good and bad qualities, so it pays to have both in the boat because there are days when one trumps the other.
Make sure your fishing reel drags are in good working order.
In addition to many limits of eaters being caught around the lake, some really big walleyes are showing up as well.
Fishing has been fairly consistent from last week, although we targeted some shallower fish and changed tactics just a hair.
Valuable information that will help you catch more walleyes on spinner rigs, a go-to tactic during the summer months.
Use a tipped piece of a nightcrawler and use a subtle jigging action to catch these fish.
