Lake Erie Walleye Madness - Spinners Edition

We absolutely crushed the walleye on the late spring day on Lake Erie. The crawler harnesses were the charm. The deeper we went the more walleye we caught. We caught so many there's another bunch of footage to come later in part 2
Capt. Ross Robertson has made his complete living chasing walleye as a full time professional angler for more than 20 years. Through the years he has worn many hats including time as a fishing guide, boat salesman, TV host, outdoor writer, product designer, tournament fisherman, speaker, radio host and podcaster to name a few.
Ross fishes ice-out to ice-up on the Great Lakes. He spends the majority of the year walleye fishing on Lake Erie’s Western and Central basins.

Just started hitting the big lake this year, been using your tips and have limited last 5 days straight

[@JeremyReger]

honestly, there is no other channel that compares..

[@Dw8977]

It is amazing to watch you make this look so easy when I know it’s hard with 2 people. But you do it by yourself everyday as you do it that way with guide clients too

[@lakeerieicefishing]

Don't be that bandit guy, I got that covered!

[@bobfrock7898]

The video was awesome !!! But the footage takes the cake.( Just the pickle)

[@brett_outdoors]

You put out some great videos. 👍🏻

[@danward2490]

[@brothergas1260]

Producer dude. Who headlined ( without looking it up ) lalapooloza’98????…..

Thanks for the video. I’m just getting into trolling. What reels and size do you recommend?

@@Bigwaterfishing hahaha I see what he did there! Did you just get trolled? 😳🤪🤣🤣 …. Easy Ken just having fun! 👌 ✌️

[@esoxinator968]

Good catching but I'd like to see spinners /weights /and all the juice that makes the catching happen

[@pasarea999]

Makes me wanna get out there but im way in the eastern basin in canada dont think is worth it yet, what u think?

[@Bigwaterfishing]

They don't grow legs and you can't catch them on the couch...get out there !!!

[@pasarea999]

@@Bigwaterfishing oh I’m staying busy with the salmon but you are very right! Itching for some walleye too. Tight lines like everything you do wish i knew about you earlier

[@rawbsworld6604]

The problem with extra rod holders is they ‘never’ bring their own, and drink all your cold beverages & that gets expensive! 🤐 😳 🤣😂 … ✌️🤙

[@jojopyro1231]

Could I ask how your attaching weight? And amount of line out? Appreciate your time

[@pasarea999]

Just an inline weight and he is probably running 40 60 80 behind the boards

[@johnfisher8222]

Watch fishing 411 and use their app. It shows you how to run 2oz snap weights and how much to let out.

[@MrHarryson1985]

ross, I know you probably answered this before but I haven't come across the answer yet. tell me about those trolling rods LOL the line passes through the rod?

[@Dw8977]

Am I wasting my time pulling artificial or gulp worms??

[@rawbsworld6604]

Are you catching any? Try one rod with a real worm see what catches, maybe in fish vacant area 😳🤷‍♂️ … besides been my experience fake or real shouldn’t be pulling worms, they break really easy 😂😂 🤦 .. ✌️

[@Dw8977]

👍👍

[@mikeschlimgen7666]

@@Dw8977 Last weekend in MI waters, we did well on Gulp worms behind the boards. I was using real worms on my down rods and those were working well, but on the boards, they were getting picked clean before they even got out to the sides. So I put Gulp on those and we ended up catching all of our best fish on those.

[@Dw8977]

@@mikeschlimgen7666 thank you 😊

[@steveon12]

seriously tho turn off the clicker :)

[@rawbsworld6604]

🤦 pretty sure he answered why he doesn’t in the last vid, give it a look! 👍

[@mikeschlimgen7666]

@@rawbsworld6604 He answered why he has it on when they are in the holders, which I totally agree with. But you can do that and still turn them off before you reel the fish in. That's what we do. It takes about 1 second to do it and then you don't have to deal with all that noise. He actually does that in the video as he is explaining why he keeps them on, which is kind of funny, because that is what people were talking about when they say "turn off the clicker".

[@rawbsworld6604]

@@mikeschlimgen7666 😂 really it’s no biggie to me! 🤷‍♂️ honestly never ever noticed it to be a distraction, 😝 why I always just smh & laugh figuring it’s just people being nit picky or ingesting to much non prescription medication to pay attention to the vids topic or what’s being said 🤦 🤷‍♂️😂😂😂😂 … ✌️

[@mikeschlimgen7666]

@@rawbsworld6604 It drives me nuts. Whenever I have newbies on my boat and they are bringing in fish, I always have to turn off the clicker for them, because they can't find the button. I guess after doing things a certain way for 20+ years, they just get engrained in my brain. Like loosening the drag a bit after removing the board. Or leaving the clicker on and setting the drag light when putting it in the holder. Making sure the line gets behind the pin on the back clip of the board, etc, etc. It just becomes automatic after a while.

[@rawbsworld6604]

@@mikeschlimgen7666 I got nothing 🤷‍♂️ the whole point of my response reply was he explained why, he addressed the complaint, what more needs said? Cept why they don’t make their own fishing vids teach folk to fish they want them to fish imho! … I’ve never said and won’t what my true thoughts are it’s not my place a legitimate question 👍 but mostly try to be humorous maybe inspire some good natured conversation just my small contribution to the algorithm.. have no desire or need to get in tit for tat convo just counter productive 😳 … ✌️
