Great day fishing brother! I’d say you need a bigger net. Lol hey crap happens that’s for sure. Either way it was a great day and thanks for the tips. We got sauger here in Tenn in our rivers and I’m trying to get them figured out myself

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thanks for watching! It was a great day fishing but landing the big one would have been the icing on the cake!

[@MarkJLarsonOutdoors]

Just started your playlist buddy gonna let it play!!

[@stevekovalick3806]

Just found your channel, thanks for the video's! What rod holder's are these? I believe i need a couple

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Down East rod holders. I think they are Salty S-10.

[@russell7140]

Thanks for the video. It gives me a little more hope the next time I'm at Alum.

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Russell thanks for watching! When it comes to Saugeye we all need a little more hope! lol

[@bryanreid4617]

Nice video. I fish Alum Creek regularly and have just recently started to target saugeye. I've only caught a few and I'm still trying to figure them out. I'll definitely keep your tips in mind when I'm out there on my next trip. I'm picking up a new boat this weekend and will be back on the water early next week.

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thanks!!

[@edwards4445]

Hey man. I fish alum but not from a boat. I've trolled 1nce and got seaweed. But that was lake logan. I used to troll erie with my dad but haven't done it since 93. Ever get a chance I'd love to go. Throw ya some gas money. Looks like a blast

[@thomasthesing7452]

Thanks for the info, I'm trying to learning the Eyes

[@Dark30Outdoors]

You are welcome. They can be challenging to figure out!

[@markoharoldoronearmedpoohb7816]

Only time we caught Saugeye is in the Ohio river, I grew up near Senecaville lake, no Saugeye there that I knew of!

[@Dark30Outdoors]

That's a really nice area!!

[@dukebuck]

good stuff....potentially stupid question: do you use an electric motor to troll or the gas? My boat's a little heavy and not sure if an electric has enough juice to power for long enough, but will gas scare them away?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Generally, I have better luck with the electric trolling motor especially when they're shallow, but I've caught them with the gas motor as well.

[@ashmontrealty]

Great show. How deep where you running your baits?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thank you! Approximately 6 - 8 feet down.

[@stevefornshil1390]

Nice video looks like a nice place to fish.....what and where did you get those rod holders from? Need some of those for me and my sons new jon boat

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thanks!! Those are Down East Rod holders, S-10 is the model. Amazon usually has them for about $45 or so.

[@RANDYSMITHOU812]

Just going back looking at old videos

[@Dark30Outdoors]

I think this one is my most popular to date.

[@landensfishing8482]

nice work! you ever do any good in the north pool?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

It's hit or miss up there for me. I can't get them up there consistently.

[@landensfishing8482]

@@Dark30Outdoors thanks, im pretty much stuck in the north pool only tell fall because i am in a kayak

[@Dark30Outdoors]

@@landensfishing8482 That makes sense!!

[@alexanderroth5176]

What size flicker shads were you using?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Alexander Roth usually the 5mm but sometimes 7mm.

[@alexanderroth5176]

@@Dark30Outdoors thanks, it looked like 7s but i kept thinking there's no way you were catching that many crappie on 7s haha

[@theohiooutdoors2444]

Those lures look small for saugeye. Are they rapalas?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Berkley Flicker Shads! Saugeyes love them! Crappie too!!

[@zebra3738]

I really enjoyed your video and sorry you lost the really big saugeye. I am wanting to get into saugeye fishing at Piedmont Lake OH. If you have any other good tips, especially for Piedmont, i would love to hear them. Thanks!

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thanks! The rip rap along the dam and the rocks along the north shore is where I would start! I haven't targetted saugeye in that lake, but I did fish it for musky the first time ever this year! Beautiful lake for sure!!

[@thomasthesing7452]

Flickershads?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Yes, Berkley Flicker Shads! They work very well!

[@tomkeltescheverythingoutdo2379]

Looks like you had steady action.

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Tom Keltesch and Everything Outdoors it was a good bite especially just being out for 4 hours!

[@tomkeltescheverythingoutdo2379]

@@Dark30Outdoors nice!

[@twopassionsfishing386]

Great video friend

[@onepunch9203]

Good action! You were getting bit. Beautiful crappies, man! I couldn't identify that first one you called a "dink" on my little screen. Kinda looked like a trout. What was it?

[@Dark30Outdoors]

One Punch thanks! It was great action for 4 hours on the water! Dink saugeye!

[@OfftheHookOutdoors99]

Nice video!

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Thanks brother!!

[@FCPFishing]

Hate losing a good fish!

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Me too!! lol

[@suzymcalister7930]

You forgot the most important tip of them all. Bring a real net with you and don't stretch out so far to net the fish, bring the fish to you.

[@ravincathomestead-cecilia2894]

Doing playlist to get hours

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Awesome! Thank you!!

[@warriorxtman2]

Just had a 20 pound musky blah blah blah....

[@Dark30Outdoors]

Yep!! It was fun!!
