Ep. 10 - Cast Or Troll? That Is The Walleye Question

We love to fish based on memories. Captain Ross Robertson, a veteran of the Lake Erie walleye scene, sees it all the time. Returning clients go on and on about how during their trip last fall they hammered on this lure or with this presentation and they so badly want to recreate that scenario again. Sometimes it happens; often it does not. The calendar dates might align with the glory day from a year earlier, but that doesn’t mean the conditions are the same. In walleye fishing, success is found either casting or trolling, and many anglers have a preference. In fact, they can become so set on their method that they end up catching fewer fish because they’re unwilling to or unsure of when to switch tactics. But those cues aren’t as difficult to recognize as you think. In episode 10 of the "Quick Strike" Podcast, Roberston un-muddies the water on when to tow the lines or break out the spinning rods. His tips will help you get on fish faster, stay on fish longer, and increase your overall efficiency. Hosted by OL fishing editor Joe Cermele. Edited by Mike Pederson / Eighty Five Audio.
