Today we are back with another video. Today we are fishing on Lake of the Woods and we are targeting big summer walleyes! In this video we troll with lead core for deep basin walleyes. This is a super productive way to fish crank baits this time of year. We end up having a great day and catch a bunch of big walleyes!

Great video guys...that is the lake I caught my personal best on using what you guys teach in your videos.....lead core I am really new to since majority of Iowa doesn't have the lakes that need that deep of trolling but I definitely need to learn it. I would enjoy behind the scenes also of getting the boat reset up, retying, getting ready to run a system

[@artbell3825]

I just subscribed a few weeks ago and I have learned so much already. Very informative and you take the time to explain the techniques. Thanks Tom ...Art in Ontario.

[@fidiusjwhoopie]

BOUT TIME... glad you had a decent day on LOTW, ya'll come back now..., would love to see some wave pounding footage

[@gregbroyles2908]

Love the behind scene stuff!

[@jtn-minn8105]

What's the behind the scenes stuff called? I can't find it.

[@craigwavra3495]

Love that area of the lake. Know where you were and have enjoyed many years. Glad to see you finally made it to the big water!!

[@jacobvarner9022]

Yea buddy lol that was me. I liked that behind the scene devil lake. It's real and you still throw in a tip or two

[@jonstokes3122]

Your videos are always awesome! Great work guys!

[@Moondog9322]

Always entertaining and educational when Tom and Mitch are after walleyes.

Nice to see you guys up in my neck of the woods. I always say it lake of the woods is angry you have to respect it, and the weather man is always wrong lol

[@ronmacdougall9612]

Another great vid guys

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

I think the behind the scenes stuff would be neat. I also think some random "boring" stuff could be interesting, too - I know that sounds backwards, but there always seem to be little nuggets of info to pick up that aren't the main topic. So something that doesn't make sense for a main video like prepping and launching the boat, pre-rigging rods the night before, sorting or buying tackle, looking at lake maps the night before, who knows - putting it in a BTS vid could pick up some tips. Might work, might not, IDK, I've just picked up a lot of subtle things over the years so could be neat. What's Mitch's channel?

[@MrJderoche]

Think it would be an awesome promo idea if you guys run a contest for all walleye now subscribers. Have a tally on all walleye boated between Tom and Mitch for calendar year 2023, closest guess without going over wins a weekend fishing trip with the pair of you guys?? Great incentive for new subscribers, and a nice give back to a lucky long time fan🤷🏻‍♂️ Tight lines fellas!

[@davidwhite1013]

Always enjoy every video you guys do. Always informative. Would love to see you guys do a video on locating fish on lake Francis case in South Dakota. We are in a period of super heated water 80+ degrees. Fish are sometimes difficult to locate and catch.

[@btPapaGcf]

I'd love to see you guys hit the North Arm of Rainy Lake in an episode.

[@larryd.collins7996]

Loved this ...what a showcase.. picked up some details along the way.. guessing on the lures based on occasional sighting.

[@frankbelisle5861]

Love that area!!

[@larryd.collins7996]

Lake of the Woods breakdown ; will look for it.

[@NomadicNorthwoods]

I broke down and bought a MN fishing license, just had to, too many opportunities. Typically northern Wisconsin satisfies my walleye cravings but exploring new lakes is just too fun. Really want to try this lake. That a hell of a journey though. Nice content guys, you should've filmed the big waves though, that's always nerve wracking!

[@andrewstich7117]

Thanks for the great video

[@brentjohnson8014]

You should check out walleye retreat when you're up there again. Owner is Robbie he has nice cabins that are great prices cheaper than the hotels in town and you can keep your boat in the water. He has a landing right at the resort.

[@john4314]

Great video as usual. Do you ever get to Winnie? I’d love to see you break down that lake along with some weed walleyes in Brainerd on North Long. Keep up the GREAT content! 👍🏼

[@TomBoley]

We have filmed a bunch on Winnie over the years.

[@mattgaulke6615]

Can you and Mitch do a short video on how to properly hold a walleye? I've seen a lot of anglers lately putting lip grippers through the gills, holding with dry gloves, one using a mouth spreader, then commenting"safely released"

[@jakeowens1770]

Lotw with tommy boy lets go!

[@kkamp0528]

[@tonyeckert1370]

can you do a video on building your fishing system, prioritizing what is absolutely necessary to start out with at first? most people like me can't afford to drop all that cash at once.

[@MuskyJaeger19]

Go to Vermiliion for your next stop. Fish Muskies instead though! haha

[@davidn1369]

Nice fish guys!!! Can you please share what brand and specs on rods and reels? Also details on leadcore line? Thanks!

[@dst6619]

I've been on L.O.W. great lake. Lots of fish! Long ride from west central WI. tho

[@MrBrandon17617]

Been watching your videos for awhile now. Looks like you got a different boat sometime along the way? I’ve never used a tiller, other than a guided trip I was on… your boat makes me feel like I wasted $ on the ZV21, you obviously don’t need all that boat!

[@friendlyfishingguy9556]

Welcome to the land of 10,000 addictions.

[@andrewp5972]

What about using a bottom bouncer instead of lead core or doesn’t that get similar results?

[@stephenfunk3105]

Hey Tom! My family has a cabin on a small Ontario lake connecting to 2 other lakes. It’s not very pressured but it’s a bit of a struggle to convince walleye to bite even though I have plenty of spots where I mark a lot of fish. Water is fairly clear and quite warm. Any techniques you would suggest to work to catch these fish?

[@MrJderoche]

2oz bottom bouncer, 3 foot worm harness, 1.5 mph👌🏻

[@pierrebelanger4858]

Awesome

[@Adenericksonfishing]

Try lake kabetogama Minnesota

[@Evergreene007]

Tom when are you going to do another Lake Superior vid?

[@larryd.collins7996]

Love the videos.. any chance of adding something in your intros that includes the depth, trolling speeds being used, and crank baits being used.. then viewers know and can better relate to it earlier in the video.

[@TomBoley]

We put up lengthy and detailed videos on the walleye now App highlighting all that stuff. Check it out

For sure

[@patgingras5974]

What podcast were you guys listening to?? Haha

[@exconcurly]

Nice video tom,just curious now that outboards can drop rpms low enough to troll,is it worth not buying a kicker,or at 4$ a gallon is trolling all day add alot of expense,I salmon troll all day with a 150 hp I can't imagine trolling with the big motor all day

[@kirbytaylor3456]

My two cents worth. The kicker motor is a definite advantage economically because you are not logging countless hours on a $40,000 dollar motor. You are logging them on a $5,000 motor. That would be my justification for a kicker motor.

[@tuiflies5869]

I use my TM 85% of the time now and spend most of my time trolling.

Great video as always! Correct me if I'm wrong does Mitch have 150 merc? If so how do you get it to troll down to 2 - 2.5 mph ) I have a 185 Alumacraft edge with a 150 Merc and it trolling to fast when just in gear . Drift sock?

[@korycolorado]

Trim up and put trolling motor backwards every now and then to slow down going down wind.

[@Dw8977]

6 hours!! I drove 13.5 hours to fish Green Bay in April 🤣

[@edpoints1127]

Whoa whoa whoa... I can look past comments all day long. That one?! No way! Green Bay in April will SMOKE LOTW. Well worth your drive. I hope you caught fish... If you did, I'm going to guess there were absolute studs mixed in there somewhere. If you're fairly good, 3 fish over 10lbs is possible in a few hours. Way out west where walleyes are kinda frowned upon, (Columbia River) you might have a chance at Green Bay type fish. I've never fished out there, only heard. Erie, Saginaw, Maumee, Bull Shoals, Devil's lake, Leech etc included... Personally I think it would be tough to top Green Bay.

More control

[@jeremiahbock7692]

@@TomBoley yeah I was wondering a similar thing. I see you using bottom bouncers and I was wondering why not doing it in this case? More control on Depth? By the way love the Walleye Now App!

[@MrHarryson1985]

@@joshuajones2552in my opinion, MAJOR benefit of snap weights is that you don't need to set up a specific rod and reel combo to run snap weights. It gives you plenty of depth control, without having and tote around another rod and reel combo specifically for that. Con is that you have to pay for each lures individual information but 2 years later I'm more than satisfied with it. Would like to get around to putting together a lead core setup but just to see if I figured that but honestly, snap weights so well I haven't yet bothered. Also, snap weights are pretty versatile, I routinely run them to get spoons down aswell as cranks and sometimes even crawler harnesses on Lake Ontario. Anyways, hope the two cents was helpful, cheers!

[@myrondel]

You guys are fishing deep and the reason the walleyes are dying when you put them back is that you need to deflate their air bladder. I watched Mich tow 1 back, and it just floated and didn't recover.

[@J_landon20]

you have to take a trip to Winnebago ad fish that system its totally different from were you fish and learn the waters because a lot of people find it out but its a mucky bottom with almost no structure

[@jar895]

Behind the seen, you bet

[@davidkerr5867]

Do you have an issue with measuring weighing your fish? I don't get solid idea of the size of the fish when you push them up to the cam. I would really like to know how big the fish really is. Even if you did a couple just for reference. Many of us are not catching fish like you're able to because of our work schedules but we live somewhat vicariously through your vids. Give us a little more please, unless you have some religious belief about true sizing of the fish. If you do please explain to us that belief. I think you owe us, who buy your app and sub to your channel, that much.
