In our last episode we talked early spring Eyes in the shallows and bass fishing for spring Walleye.  Now we discuss that open water option that most Walleye anglers can relate too.  Trolling for the big girls at night in early spring can be life changing.  Post spawn monsters looking pack on the pounds are ready to eat and we are here to help!

Early spring and the ice is GONE! We are all ready to hit the water and now we need the fish to cooperate.  Walleye guys you need to hit up your bass buddies and ask them where they are fishing this time of year and what they are using.  You would be amazed at how many Walleyes the Bass guys catch in early spring.  Lets dive into early spring Bass fishing for Walleyes.  

In the gloom of winter we wanted to share some funny stories before we start off 2025 with some hardcore fishing tips for the spring.  Fishing is all about the catching.  If someone says its the journey they are bad fisherman.  Remember we all know that guy.  But...along the way we do manage to have some fun.  Good times on warm days.

Is it luck or is it skill, or is that critical intersection where preparedness meets luck?  In this episode we talk about some lucky times where we have caught big fish or had a strong finish in a tournament.  Some say it's luck and others love to believe it's all their skill but in the end maybe it's as simple as being prepared to be lucky.  For more of this episode subscribe to THE NEXT LEVEL and listen to an additional hour of All Eyes on Fishing.

We watch Randy Blaukat from Intuitive Angling discuss the need to attach leaders to superlines or braid.  Randy gives his opinion and we give ours.  It was a lot of fun listening to a theory on the subject and debating Randy's key points.  This is one you don't want to miss.
