Trolling For BIG Lake Erie Walleyes | Organized Chaos!!!

[@dennisyoder799]

Just a tip for you, I fish Lake Erie quite a bit. Yes, just an exceptional fishery! If you only put the line in about halfway on the clip closest to the flag, you can actually pop it loose and it makes your board swing back into the middle and away from all the other lures. Feel free to try it! Thanks for the great footage!

[@CodyS]

Thank you!

[@717motorsports]

Nice video and fish. Glad you had a nice time on my home lake. As a captain I'm blessed to be able to make walleye fishing my job here.

[@CodyS]

Love it out there!

[@JoeIsOut2lunch]

I wish all fishing videos started with a description of structure, depth, lure, speed.

[@angler6960]

Watching fish catches is very entertaining but when your a die hard angler the details( line,lure,set up, water temp, technique etc ) are just as interesting.

[@Dw8977]

I fished Lake Erie last April. We got on the lake and limited out 4 out of the 5 days. 1 day was a blow day. And Saturday I’m headed to Green Bay for 5 days of bay fishing, can’t wait

[@CodyS]

Good luck!

[@Coldfrontpursuits]

Lake erie is an awesome lake to fish for walleye. We fish it hard 👍💪

[@alanmadison225]

"Didn't go 20." 😆 Glad you guys had fun and had a great trip. I'm fortunate to live 4 miles from the boat ramp. Your second spot looked to be West of South Bass Island over near Green. Great early season location. Great job fellas!

[@JJE2010MO]

New Subscriber! Great video, it's surprising how quickly I want to go fishing again!

[@UsepBeraufishing]

Good videos and fish. Glad you had fun, and this is indeed a fun fishing trip, thank you for sharing friends, have a nice and good day always,

[@CodyS]

Thank you!

[@mojo2090]

Protip, add the Mag-Net-Go to your net. I have the same net and it really helps

[@CodyS]

Sweet!

[@Fishnfreak]

“12 seconds later…” lmao! Great video!!

[@CodyS]

Thanks!

[@kirbymcdaniel4258]

Man you couldn’t get any more of a flat day ! That lake can rock and roll ! Did you try any jigging ?

[@CodyS]

Hell yeah! And no we just trolled!

[@devindrawenek641]

Alot of great eyes

[@DavePitcher]

Great Vid guys!! Best time of year you figure to travel down there from northern michigan to get into them like you guys did?

[@CodyS]

May!

[@jakejacobson2999]

So I’m guessing this area you’re fishing on the western basin is pretty shallow right? How shallow is it? See I’m used to fishing out of the PA side in Midsummer and 50 to 70 feet of water lol you guys have a nice over there

[@CodyS]

Yup!

[@robertcranford6205]

nice video

[@andrewcole5923]

Do you guys fish Bandits very often? I started fishing them last year and they seemed to work fairly well. Any specific patterns you’d recommend?

[@CodyS]

Quite a bit out there because of the diving depth. I always try to stick with flashy chrome colors on sunny days and brighter colors on cloudy days.

[@Skank_Hunt42]

That's a special place when DNR encourages fishermen to keep a limit of walleye big or small. Lake Erie will peak out in the next 3 years. Average should be 27"

[@CodyS]

It’s awesome!

[@jakejacobson2999]

Are you steering with your Trolling Motor?

[@CodyS]

Yes

[@jakejacobson2999]

@@CodyS does the trolling motor do alright steering at 2-2.4 mph?? Might be a stupid question lol but I never used mine going that fast

[@swampwhiteoak1]

Plenty of fish to catch. I am all for keeping and enjoying fish for dinner. However, no reason to keep the big girls that had not yet spawned. Maybe you would think differently if it was your home lake. Don’t be in a rush to come back.

[@mr.boredom649]

What season was in in what month also how deep were you using the bandits thanks

[@CodyS]

April

[@mr.boredom649]

How deep do you recommend running deep divers like bandits we ushaly use spoons right by you

[@CodyS]

Depends how deep your fishing and where the fish are in the water column. Run em high and low.

[@thehockeybumblebee1545]

I haven’t done this before but why are you guys reeling so slow?

[@CodyS]

No need to reel them in fast.

[@CodyS]

Nice!

[@brian7518]

YOU GUYS AIN'T GREEDY AREN'T GREEDY!!!

[@brian7518]

😂😂😂😂😂 LOL you are awesome 😎 Fishermen! Good 👍 job!

[@gregj831]

That's a lot of very tasty 'expensive' Walleye meat.

[@CodyS]

It’s great!

[@haydenzilla9045]

Why do those look like jerkbaits? But im just new to fishing so im clueless

[@CodyS]

Stick baits, they are similar. Most of the crank baits used in this video are floating cranks not suspending.

[@tankdog03ify]

Tiny boat for 4 dudes

[@CodyS]

Worked out alright!

[@DEVILDOG1964]

NO INFO, DEPTH, TROLLING SPEED, TIME OF YEAR, WATER TEMP. JUST WATCHING CATCH FISH TEACHES ME NOTHING AND I'D LIKE TO LEARN. WATCHING THIS A YEAR LATER. PLEASE MORE DETAILS.

[@CodyS]

Watch my most current Erie video

[@DEVILDOG1964]

@@CodyS what is that video called?

[@lawsonhollenbaugh3626]

I WISH YOU GUYS WOULD PRACTICE CATCH & RELEASE OF THOSE BEAUTIFUL WALLEYES OVER 22 INCHES,
