Great video, as usual Tom. I notice you use a straight up treble hook for dead sticking most times. Do you ever use any other hooks/lures for a live minnow? Thanks!

Ice is here in Minnesota! Red lake is locked up as far as the eyes can see! There is about 4 inches of nice clear ice on the smaller walleye lakes. The night bite is fire right now. 6-12 ft of water is holding lots of nice fish. Be safe and have fun!

I have to agree with you on white fish, they smell like a dead carp that laid on the beach for a week when you pull them fresh out of the water. Then people want to eat that. And to top it off you can't get that smell off your hand or clothes right away. If i catch one i won't even take it out of the water they stink that bad. Even laying them on the ice the smell stay's there. The only thing these fish are good for are coon trappers!

Tom thank you for a detailed understanding on graphs !!!

You should do the extended season open water bite on Big Green Lake WI. Larry Smith had a show last season on that.

Miss your new videos Tom. It's been 2 weeks since this one - we hope you're doing okay and nothing is wrong.

This I can relate to in 🕸 westvirginia I catch dozens of 13in and better during Lake fishing.

What lake tom do you fish the most

Great video Tom

Tom, you left the young man hanging. He wanted to shake your hand as well. He's part of the team. Acknowledge him.

thanks for the set up video... just bought seld and shack... building out my set up.

By midsize do you mean the 2 inch size or 2 and a half size lure

wasnt that 1st fish too small to eat???

Ready for ice season 2024!

where do you get those augers

why didnt you eat those

Very nice walleyes

What size stick bait was casting size 10 or 12

guys we have been using these on erie for 40 years

Id love to see a lake geneva wi video

Hi Tom, what jet boil size do you use? Is it the micro mo?

What are the boxes you put on the back of the snowmobile?

👍 Star notes seem to be getting more scarce...

I found them shallow here in northern mn last week when my hands got cold slip bobber worked pretty good too

I find the Walleye bite way different right now, like in summer they would hit my line, now you really got to pay attention to them they just peck at the bait. It is nice cause I don't gut hook em, but its weird how they have been hitting my line

👏🙏

You are dedicated Tom ! Great video & Tips ! 🎣 👍

Man I went fishing today in northern Minnesota in “skinny water” on the river and got skunked

I’m a newbie shore fisherman and I’ve been having a real hard time keeping a tight line

Great idea with the bobber on the minnow net :)

Let’s see that deer!

Tom, thank you for another great video! I hope to meet you one day in person. You've taught me pretty much everything I know about walleye fishing and have since became a proficient walleye fisherman. I just recently had to have my right leg amputated and your videos make me feel like I'm back on the water again. I can't wait until I get back to walleye fishing and upland game bird hunting again which IS GOING TO HAPPEN. If you're ever in Wyoming look me up and I would love to help you out with a video walleye fishing in my home, and the Great State of Wyoming. Keep up the excellent videos and your always welcome aboard on the Kraken, which is the name of my fishing boat.

Thanks for the live scope break down

Great job Tom

What about bank and pier fishing

So after ice melts would walleye be here at that time ?

Good video. Thanks for sharing.

Have not used the piscifun products yet looking forward to it!

You mean like an inbred hillbilly pro.

Always love your videos. My ONLY negative is you gotta upgrade the Folgers buddy 😂. Thanks for the great fall bite vid.

Lake Levels here in NW Michigan are lowest in the 42 years that I’ve been fishing 🎣 here !!!!!!! Thanks for another Open Water 💦 Season of Guidance TOMMY !!!!!!!!!!! Be Safe and Congratulations on the 🦌 👍🏻🍁🦌

i went out a week ago and i saw everything in 40 feet suspended at 20-30ft should i bother with that or no

If you tell everyone, is it still a secret???😂

I’m so not ready to quit open water and winterize the boat and put it away for the winter!!!!! My Dog Remi loves the boat and go fishing with me too!🎣👍. Love your show Tom and thank you for the tips !!! Please No Dry lines is my fishing web !! The Mississippi River pool 9 & 10 ( mostly the Praire du Chien,Wi area is the closest walleye fishing we have around in our area in Northeast Iowa !! I’m thinking walleye fishing pretty much 24/7🎣👍

Dude everyone is putting their boats up and painstakingly waiting for ice. Still boat grinding! The extra bonus is find em now find em first ice!

Nice

Tom, do you find using a bigger minnow in the shallow weeds more productive?

Tom your videos make this look so easy. I'm gonna take the boat out Tuesday and see if I can use some of these techniques to get on some walleye. Thanks for taking us along!

40 degree water!? We're still at 52 here in west michigan. Thanks for sharing Tom, I hope to find some walleyes on the shallow weed edges soon. The big lake Michigan giants should be showing up soon.

Haul that thing up to leech, they’re still snappin!
