Lock and Dam Early Spring Walleye Fishing Made Easy | New Boat Intro! | Ice Out Mississippi River

I'm back out on the big river chasing cold water walleye and sauger in my new boat. I do a quick walk through of the boat then go fishing! We discuss easy methods of putting cold water walleye and sauger in the boat.

[@iratherbfishin]

Great job on the video, I enjoyed watching the fishing video. I get out allot too and produce some good fishing videos as well. Tight lines 👏🎣👍💪🎥🫶

[@AnglerX]

Thank you! I'll check out your channel.

[@DWSOutdoors]

That boat is a fish catching machine!

[@AnglerX]

Lol! It can be at times.

[@DWSOutdoors]

@@AnglerX I love that platform! That might be a future investment!

[@welutsawah6262]

[@kitluedtke]

Appreciate the videos, learning a great deal. Nice work!

[@AnglerX]

Thanks for the comment!

[@whitelightning3330]

Same way my buddy and I get em real early in the spring and the fall. Kinda cool to watch the ice chunks fall over the dam. Just gotta watch the trolling motor with some of them.

[@AnglerX]

Definitely have to watch for the big chunks!

[@gregoryselner7261]

Another great video. Love the boat 🚤

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@anthonyferguson8857]

Great content as always. Love the new boat. Congratulations! Also digging the jigging Rap technique.

[@AnglerX]

Thank you! That jigging rap technique is really simple and effective.

[@alejandro4352]

Very clean! Congrats

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@chrislaprise398]

Moon eye jigs work good and you used one. Cool I finally saw a moon eye fish too!

[@AnglerX]

I like the the wire that holds the plastic on the hook and the hooks are very sharp.

[@riverrat988]

Sweet ride and you got some good ones

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@thomasreed8951]

Great video as always and nice boat as well

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@davidlarson3980]

Very nice boat Lance. Everything you need to catch a lot of fish!

[@AnglerX]

It’s been fun already!

[@devindrawenek641]

Nice boat.and you got some fish

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@LoOutdoors]

Another great video! Subbed! I just moved to the Rochester area a few months ago and have been waiting for winter to pass to go out to the Mississippi on the kayak - watching your videos in the meantime to fulfill that desire lol

[@AnglerX]

There’s a lot of great kayak fishing opportunities for sure! Thanks for the sub!

[@donbergler4903]

Nice boat and great fishing video! Intderestng walleyes were in very deep water.

[@AnglerX]

Thanks Dad! The walleyes winter in deep water so when the ice goes out they are still near the wintering holes.

[@JacksonBaumgartOutdoors]

Proud to say I’ve fished with you in that boat! Hopefully we can find a time get out this spring

[@AnglerX]

We had a pretty good day! A lot of good fishing ahead. I’m always ready to rock!

[@blueshadowoutdoors4153]

Awesome video and nice new boat was thinking about hitting that spot up as well

[@AnglerX]

Thank you! Now is the time!

[@theinvasivespecies1119]

Very nice boat Lance

[@AnglerX]

Thank you! I’m enjoying it.

[@cnsoutdoors8406]

Another good vid Lance

[@AnglerX]

Thank you!

[@andrewwilhorn1066]

Seems like the perfect river boat. Congrats. I've got a week out West skiing and then hope to be applying some of the things I've learned from your channel up on Pool 5 when I get back.

[@AnglerX]

That should be good timing to get on a good spring bite!

ICE OUT LETS GO!

[@AnglerX]

👊

[@scotts3461]

That is a nice rig! I've been looking for a good used Lund to replace my smaller 15 footer. If ya hear of one up your way let me know. Love the walleye and Saugers below the dam. I will be trying that below the dam in Dubuque this year. Thanks Lance I'm learning from your technique. Great video

[@AnglerX]

Great to hear! There should be more boats for sale as we head into spring/summer. Keep an eye out and you’ll find something you like.

[@stanleybailer3350]

Nice content bro and way to go new boat looks stellar !! Do you ever tie stinger trebles to your jigs for light bites ? I know it's works for me with the bass @ side bumps !!

[@AnglerX]

I’ve never used stinger hooks. I’m aware of them just don’t use them.

[@stanleybailer3350]

Yeah nothing like 3 hookers 1 worm 🤣

[@jdf6574]

Great video Lance. Remember when that cool guy “me” caught that monster smallie out of ur boat ?

[@AnglerX]

Thanks! I don’t remember that…didn’t Nate catch a giant 😂

[@jdf6574]

@@AnglerX unreal

[@jimg1638]

Thanks for another wonderful video I like your boat that ladder on the back can be a lifesaver I had a 16ft Lund and was ejected let me tell you it's a bitch trying to get back into a boat also keep that killswitch on your wrist and make sure that it works

[@AnglerX]

Great advice! Thank you!

[@tbauer2521]

I enjoyed the video, but barotrauma is tough on walleyes caught in anything over 30'.

[@catfishstalkeroutdoorswith530]

Thanks for the video! What is worse to deal with the ice or the floating weeds?

[@AnglerX]

I’d have to say the weeds. I know the ice will be gone soon.

[@Jewishcatfish]

Mr. Mooneye made a appearance. Won't be long and things will be back to normal with the regular sheepshead wanting camera time too. 😒 Good to see access to the river again!

[@AnglerX]

Yep those sheeps deserve some time too 😆.

[@RMagoon]

I'm fairly new to your channel but great work. I have a question for you. Could you save a few of those mooneyes for me for cat fish bait. I live down in Iowa.

[@AnglerX]

I don’t catch them very often but you could target them with a bobber and minnows set shallow in current areas

[@smashinemoutdoors3565]

What dam is that we are up at redwing rn fishing in the Milan beach resort boat!!

[@AnglerX]

Dam 5a

[@BillORights1]

Good video. I really respect seeing a sportsman, not just someone keeping everything for their belly and bragging rights

[@waynewurst3487]

Do you guide on the missippi

[@AnglerX]

No

[@wanihi_hirakara6194]

Nice video. I'm looking for a good hi-viz fishing line. What do you use/recommend? Mono or flouro?

[@AnglerX]

My preference is Hi Vis gold Stren 8lb mono

[@DLjoey]

Is this "Ice Fishing"?

[@AnglerX]

Yeah kinda is 😆
