Spring walleye season is here, and I’m breaking down my top 5 lures that absolutely crush it when the water starts warming up. From suspending crankbaits to deadly spoons, these are the proven baits I rely on every single season to land big walleye—and sometimes surprise trout and bass too!

In this episode, I cover:

✅ The legendary Smithwick Rogue and Rapala Husky Jerk HJ12

✅ The always reliable PK Flutterfish, Ridge Rattler, and the new Sonar Spoon

✅ My go-to jig setup with VMC Moon Eye Jigs and Berkley Curly Tails

✅ Paddle tails, grub tails, and everything you need for open water success

I also share personal stories, rigging tips, and how to fish each bait from shore or boat.
