MEGA Walleyes on Lake Erie - In-Depth Outdoors TV Season 13, Episode 22

[@SALMONSLAYER06]

good to see promoting catch and release. all the big fish get pounded on during fall and spring

[@OnyxOutdoor]

Another great episode from the InDepth crew!!! Great to see Steve, PJ, and James wearing their life jackets!

[@kyleUT]

I fish Lake Erie often. Get an RS Net made for those gigantic walleye. They're pricey but you won't regret it!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We've used those before. They're really nice!

[@buckeyeoutdoorstv]

You guys do a great job with your show informing people of how to catch walleyes keep up the great work.

[@buckeyeoutdoorstv]

Thank you we are asking people what they would like to see more of and your input would be great thanks for watching !

[@markv.3655]

great job again James and Pj love your videos Guys.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Thanks Mark V!

[@steveon12]

James always looks excited no matter who's catching. awesome vid guys, great to see PJ too.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

James told me he reeled in one small fish the whole trip and had an amazing time. Definitely a reminder that the people you fish with make fishing trips and not the number of fish you catch.

[@kyleschlicht6129]

Heck yes this is every walleye fisherman’s bucket list trip you guys smashed em keep it up love the show

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Thanks Kyle!

Bite has been better then ever.. mother Erie is about a football field from my house. Hometown

[@fokiat]

[@michaelprevost1229]

Great show Erie is on my bucket list now.

[@SHEAINTALADYIFSHEAINT280]

Erie 'eyes is about as xlose as you can get to "shooting fish in a barrel" such healthy numbers and some absolute tanks. Lucky to live in the metro detroit michigan area. Im close to lake st clair and erie isnt too far away. Cant wait to get down there this year. Awesome content as always.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Thanks Mark. You're fortunate to be so close!

[@ksoutdoorsports]

Wow, what great Walleyes!

[@Hardwaternhighways]

Open water awesomeness..... love the synchronized “” EWWWWWWWWWWW” ........lol, crazy fish guys......as usual James lets the boys have fun!!

[@DWSOutdoors]

I have open water now I'm just waiting for the game fish opener! Those rivers have been mean this spring!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Our rivers back in MN are a total blow out.

[@bassbritt5865]

Great video and very informative . I moved to lorain Ohio 2 1/2 years ago from Britian and started fishing the rivers and the lake this year . There's some great fish in there but I have not been on a boat fishing yet on the lake. So looking forward to it .. Great video keep up the good work

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Thanks Robin. Good luck to you!

I’m lucky to live in buffalo. This time of year I can stand on the beach and throw rappalas at them all day!

[@mforbes82]

Loving the open water walleye. Nice catch!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Felt great to be back in the boat!

[@markgoettelman4299]

Great video and love to all good releases 😎

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Thanks Mark!

[@bradsfishingnhuntin7169]

How do you get those scatter wraps down that deep on the planer boards ?

[@jimlem2075]

James I just got the 2075 Tyee out of storage and live 20 minutes from Lake Ontario,Niagara River and Lake Erie East,my problem is deciding what to fish Walleye,Browns,Coho,Chinook,Lakers or Rainbows.What do you advise.Your awesome video has got me thinking Walleye.

[@meadrenalinejunkie]

James.. you switched the Garmin for Hummingbirds? Was it only for the link to the bow trolling motor? Have you ever tried Lowrance? They can link up to the Motorguides Xi5. And from what I heard on the bbc forum, this year lowrance themselves is coming out with their very own brand of bow trolling motor.

[@drakebyrne-laforme5]

Where were you guys near? wondering to see where to go

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We launched from Catawba.

[@justinanglin1291]

What were your coordinates?

[@livfishupnort]

Second, still waiting up here in da u.p. for stuff to break . Trout opener at months end. Tight lines fish brothers.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We're all anxiously awaiting spring! Thanks for watching!

[@nlammers]

I was on that exact same spot last week, had four doubles in an hour. Absolute madness.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Erie is an amazing fishery!

[@nlammers]

InDepthOutdoorsTV what day were you out there?

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

@@nlammers April 9

[@nlammers]

That’s funny, cuz you were either the one boat that wasn’t in our group or you guys got on the water after we left that day. We were right on the same spot near Mouse.

Awesome work guys!! #HAWGS

[@Coonzer15]

How does that Scatter Rap Tail Dancer do in strong current?

[@destinym4339]

I catch big ones all the time so i dont know what that was about, but other then that good video.

[@zackgoedeke1956]

What make and model trolling rods were you guys using?

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Hi Zack, those were Okuma Cold Water trolling rods. 8' length. They have a very good action for pulling boards. www.cabelas.com/product/OKUMA-COLDWATER-TROLLING-ROD/1972475.uts

[@DCBronzies]

You coming to Oconto? Would love to see you boys around!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Pat's there now! Keep your eyes peeled for his Warrior!

[@bobluyk5378]

James, What line do you use with those rod and reel?

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We used two types of line, one monofilament and one braid. The monofilament was 10# Sufix Elite. The braid was 20# Sufix 832.

[@bobluyk5378]

Thank You @@InDepthOutdoorsTV

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

You're welcome, Bob.

[@Brandumb]

I've caught just about every species in Erie except rainbow and walleye ... My goal is to one day go out into the lake and snag me a walleye

[@TheBossmanJLw6v2]

Did you guys head out of Bolles Harbor near Monroe MI? Nice hogs!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We launched out of Catawba.

[@Moondog9322]

I enjoyed your video. What brand of measuring board is that? Subbed.

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Honestly not sure. It came with the boat as a factory accessory.

[@Gcsnyder06]

What boat model are you running?

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Skeeter WX 2200

[@carterlarson9814]

I’d love to come up there but I would need a guide because idk how well my skeeter 18 ft would do on them waters...

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

To be honest there's not a lot of middle ground on Lake Erie when it comes to fishing conditions. It's either light and variable or too windy to fish. Even guys with the great big boats are paying very close attention to wind conditions and picking their days to fish. I know we would have no reservations about fishing Lake Erie in a deep v 18' boat when the conditions were right.

[@carterlarson9814]

InDepthOutdoorsTV hmm maybe I will plant a trip, just got a wx1850 and have been itching to get it out-to much ice!!

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We've fished in the 1850 quite a bit and it's a very capable hull. Just remember to be sensible when you pick your days and keep an eye on the winds and you'll be just fine. The fishing should be awesome on the Western Basin of Erie for a number of weeks yet.

[@strikeforcek9149]

@@carterlarson9814 you'll be fine in an 18'er. There's guys going out in 16' semi-v Jon boats going out a few miles. Just pick your days at 1'ers and under. If you go in from the Ohio side (where I'm at in Vermillion) look for a south winds and you'll be golden when the lake flattens out.

[@special_k-hvac]

What gave the best results as bait this trip

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Deep husky jerks #12 and scatter rap tail dancers were the best.

[@special_k-hvac]

I'll have too check those out, I fish out of Erie but ive never seen walleye bigger than 20 in the last several years

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

We were definitely on a school of big fish!

[@joeykomlanc2303]

If you find a good spot at Erie I’ve seen fish reach 6ft

[@clayroemer4801]

Okay buddy

[@devongroleau8930]

What net is that?

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

That's a Ranger extendable

[@najsuroviji]

Show spoiler - IT’S A TROLLING EPISODE, NO BITES!

[@codkue5142]

while we getting measly 2-3 lbers on the Detroit river.... =(

[@InDepthOutdoorsTV]

Have the bigger fish already come into the river or are you still waiting for the big push?

[@codkue5142]

@@InDepthOutdoorsTV heard of bigger fish being caught about 2 weeks ago in local tournaments but i haven't heard of any big fish being caught this weekend. if anyone has been, they've been on the low for sure.

[@DWSOutdoors]

PIGS ALL DAY LONG!!!!

[@Thebubz6]

going fishing there tomorrow just trying to see what I could possibly Catch 🎣

[@strikeforcek9149]

I live 5-mins off of lake Erie in the central basin (Vermilion/Lorain Ohio) and fish every fishable day on lake Erie. Just got my 21' Wellcraft uncovered and ready to start slaying em this year. 2019 is supposed to be one of the best walleye years to date, according to the ODNR after doing their prelim counts and etc... Anyone interested in going out or looking for a good spot on Lake Erie for absolute hogs, hit me up. From Cleveland to Port Clinton is where ya wanna be. I'm fortunate enough to live right in the middle. 🙂
