I've watched your video twice now! Love how you explained how to use your cadence! I used your technique last weekend, I didn't catch a Walleye but I did catch a big crappie! I marked fish right on the bottom of a mid lake hump, but couldn't get them to bite.
Thank you @tomboley, I am new to jig rap fishing and am trying this out on a body of water that I am learning. Great tool! Thanks again!
This video helped me out on the Ontario side of Lake of the Woods tremendously. Thanks!
Had to rewatch my 1st Boley video, Tom, you've come a long way from your early work but the original content here still works, Congrats.
Another great video! Very instructional and also entertaining. Feels like I'm on a charter trip with you. Excellent editing quality, too. Keep up the good work!
I can't tell you how much this video has helped me! Now I'm actually catching fish and not feeling like a clown flailing about!
Used the jigging raps through the ice - will give them a go on the deep water walleye in the local lakes! Thanks Tom!
Cat like reflexes with the fumbled vertical walleye--just get you one of those reacher grabby tool things old folks use and pluck them off the bottom. Thanks and keep'em comin.
This video helped me a lot the day wasn’t catching anything tried a lot of different lures and tided on jigging rap used how you shown and caught a fish first cast and started catch walleye the rest of day you helped a lot with this video thanks for the tricks you show great video
Jigging raps can be so much fun! Great explanation
Great video, I really like how you give in depth details on how to use and technique.
For casting I like to use shiver minnows they seem to foul less, but nothing beats a jigging rap vertically exactly the way you demonstrated. That slower slack less fall makes all the difference.
Used a Jiggin rap this morning, because of this video. Caught 2 walleye in about 20 seconds. Then I got snagged. Will definitely be buying more, and adding them to my Walleye fishing tackle! Thanks Tom!
Thank you. Good work!
I am moving to walleye country and so I must learn about walleye after years of fishing stripers and crappie You earned a new sub. Your vid was very helpful . Havagudun and good fishing.
Another great video! Great looking walleyes!
I like the part where you said "I need to use #9's more" lol. I've said more than once to myself "I need to use #7's more!" Good video, you guys fish them a little different up in WI than we do in Indiana, but same principle. Like seeing how other guys work them.
Great vid mate ! Very informative.Great job👍
Bro I’m really enjoying your videos!!✌🏼✊🏼
Great content as always man. Keep it up!
Thanks Tom for all of the information that you put out. Great Job!
Thanks for the video. We are going to Erie in July and look forward to using your tips. Thanks.
Thanks" 4 posting All your Tip Vids! Much Appreciated in Idaho!
Solid advice, great explanations
Nice tips and tricks bud defiantly will put them to use when i go back out in the next couple of weeks
Awesome video! Very helpful and specific! I usually use these lures for ice fishing and wasn't sure if you could cast them. Can't wait to go out to my favorite walleye lake and try out the new techniques!
Hey Tom, great videos!! Thanks for sharing your professional expertise!!
Say , can I troll with this - lure ?
Thanks Tom....you do a very good job on your videos !!
Tha is for watching!
Awesome follow up!
Tom could play wide receiver with hands like that! He caught that walleye out of the air 3-4 times!
Thanks for the tips buddy nice video
Thanks makes sense!! Will have to get in the habit of doing that.
Say , can I troll with the lure ?
Thanks for the tips..I love the lure
Awesome video of this fishing technique. I'll give it a try next time thanks to this video. Subscribed and I'll check out your other videos.
Great video tutorial.
Catching Walleye with a Mojo BASS rod... Amazing. Good vid
Say , did he say place a steel leader on the line ?
Geeat videos Tom keep it up. Nice dog!
Great video. We have only done a little bit of Walleye fishing on the Columbia River here in Oregon. I would think this jigging would work in the right areas. We also have a Helix 12 Mega Si G2N. Finally got it dialed in to see fish pretty good Si, Di and Sonar. Plus the Navionics+ West updates with the Sonar Charts Live gave me an area that isn't on any commercial map.
Not sure where your fishing.
Man awesome video...I wondered how these guys were doing this
Hey Tom, I subscribed. Nice videos! I hear you talk about Jigging Raps. What do you think about Snap Raps, and how do you compare the two?
Awesome 🎣😉
Do you use jigging raps for ice fishing also? And if you do, do you fish them aggressive like you do in this show? Thanks
I am going to Leech Lake the last week of July, so I will be binge watching your excellent videos. Also, it's okay by me if you fishing video guys throw the fish back sooner than later. I don't need to see it for a long, long time.
How did you do?
Great stuff Tom, thanks! What song is playing in the background? I like it
Great job
Nice work I’ll subscribe.
These old vids are awesome lol
They are crazy
Love jigging raps
great info thanks for sharing
Thats how I get them vertical for Sea Bass in the ocean at 80'. Just like rowing jigs for walleye, short sharp hop and gently follow the weight of the lure and then suspend it off bottom an inch. Those lures are killer for any baitfish eating targeting scenario.
Wow that's really Cool
What size barrel swivel do you use if you attach floral carbon line to your main? Size #10
Good video!!! Great tips. Thank you👍 B a Deacon Mb Canada 🇨🇦
A school, it’s a school of fish, pods are for Orcas, but when I do what you show me, I catch walleye!
Nice video! Curious how you prevent pike bite-offs?
Holy shit this is. Great video.
Planning to try the jigging rap on St . Clair this year.
How did you do on St.Clair?
Hi Tom, Great video. I've been intending to start using the jigging raps and shiver minnow this year and your video really helps out. What a coincidence. The guy with the "Goofey" colored clothes has the exact same boat that you do. Right down to the downrigger, Marcum camera, fish finder and outboard. I think I'll dress like that next time out and see if it increases my luck! Thanks again for the informative video.
It's cold here in Washington state right now and we're finding fish in 75 feet of water. Have you ever fished the jigging raps in water that deep?
I think it's tom
I have never fished that deep. They are a great bait and with the correct clothing combination the system is unbeatable!
I was jigging rap fishing last year and my line kept fouling on the tip. How can I prevent this?
Love watching your Videos they have really helped me. Could you tell me the rod & reel combo your using . Keep the camera rolling for us. What are the Cabela's wader pants your wearing. They look perfect for fishing in the boat over jeans Thank You
Thomas Bridges please share our fishing song video & help us get subscribers? ua-cam.com/video/xX1IqLq-lxg/v-deo.html
Does the snap jigging technique with jigging raps work at night as well or only during the daytime ?
Take that back hook off and put on a two way treble hook on that comes off an H&H spinner bait. Soooo many applications for those hooks
Great video Tom, Looks like Wisconsin lakes are as good as Minnesota waters. Is that a Marcum camera on your boat or a flasher?
Tom Weaver Thanks Tom, that's a camera. Love using it all season long.
I have used a snap swivel onto the bait and just tied it directly as well, still using a floro lead with a swivel. Have You noticed a difference at all using a snap swivel versus tying directly to the rap ?
Hi Tom,
Do you guide professionally in the hayward lakes area. I am there every year with family would like to discuss if you do! Great videos, great information.
Jon Conrad yes I do! Feel free to contact me anytime!
Www.tomboley.com
Nice tips although the lure shot wasent much but the tips were helpful thanks for sharing
What type of rod are you using eg strength, speed etc?
Do these baits come in different lengths and / or weights
Oh, #7.
You ever do musky jigging with a bondy bait?
Thanks , great information for a ROOKIE like me 👍👌 👈
How deep of water were you vertically jigging the rap in the video ???
that music in the background, I would rather hear the engine, and a lot of reflection on you graph ? Great information video best I have seen on the jigging Raps
Hi Tom! Love that video! I have seen several of the Lindner Videos on the jigging Raps and very excited to try. I am from Southern Michigan. I have heard guys on the tour using them in Sagiaw bay and doing well but it seems unheard of on the inland lakes around here. The lakes are deep but not as much rock as up north. Will this lure still work?? I bought 15 of them so I sure hope they will. Would love your opinion
They everywhere walleye live
@@TomBoley A guy who fishes the tour told me that there is to much moss on the bottom and the bottom isnt hard enough. I dont buy that because watching you ...you just barly let it hit the bottom so if the walleye are there it should work. I like that you said you get them in a softer bottom. The lake Im going to focus on is a bass lake but has been heavy stock with eyes since 2011. We have been catching walleye right with the bass in low light time so I think they have to be in the deep during the day.
Do you always look for them on the finder before you fish or do more of a slow troll till you find them?
Really a Great job using the KISS (keep it simple stupid) theory in your video, you make it so easy to understand Tom. Thank You!
Will this work on a clay bottom? Would i need to add flavour? The redriver is super murky 0 visability
+Matt Halischuk I'm sure if you slowed it down it would. Sometimes adding a as mall peice of scented bait yo the treble can help.
Just watched Target Walleye doing Jigging Raps.
How far is the 2nd two thirds of a cast? 🤔 haha. Nice video 👍🏼
Nice catch both with the pole an ur hands lol
Tom dream video! Ready to fish pmytuming yet Ohio?
Great
Wait...you say “I saw this guy wearing goofy clothes” but the name bar underneath that guy says “Tom Boley”?! You ARE the Walleye Batman aren’t you! Great video man.
😂😂😂😂😂
Tom why when you have a fish on do you pull line out with your hand? I notice you do that often?
Ralph, I do that to double check drag. I think that's why tom does that.
How do you stop so quickly when you see fish on the depth finder? I always seem to fly by the spot and miss the fish.
Slam er in reverse and gun it, man! We do the same thing laker jigging
What size rap is your go to
What test line do you use
Do you ice fish with these?
If you cut the two end hooks off and replace the treble with one or two size larger treble you won’t lose as many fish. And you won’t snag up in the net as much nor will you hook yourself as much either.
Totally agree! Especially the front hook. Never see them bite the front.
Thanks. In MN any fish not hooked in the mouth is snagged (or foul hooked old language) and has to be tossed back immediately.
Very good video. Now is there a difference between using a jigging rap or a shiver minnow?
I honestly haven't experimented much with other brands. Would be a good video in the future...........
Tom Boley do a shiver minnow vs jigging rap challenge video!
Good idea!
Hi Tom , sure wish for a reply.. my Garmin fish-finder die today. Need another finder. What do you think my price range should be? Live in Canada
I run hummingbird helix gen 3+
Man, that old Evanrude was like an ideling bulldozer
What kind of lure is that i am new to fishing. Does that sink on its own
Ferdie Strang it sinks like a rock. Very heavy lure for getting down to the fish fast
Find a school. Set spot lock.
Put shad scent on your jig.
Start jigging
Great vid , really helpful . I went to your web site and tried to leave my contact information , but for some reason your site would not except my email address .
What tine of year do you use these most?
Michael Rowe summer
Which exact type of spinning rod are you using here?
St Croix mojo bass 610mlxf
was the lake u were fishing a clear. lake ?
Yes
Fishing
You make the best videos on UA-cam but dude clean the screen on your Hummingbird!
When you fish all day every day they just aren't going to stay clean
From the studies that have been done I've read that walleyes caught from water deeper than 25 feet will all die anyway if you release them. You said you were fishing 35 feet of water. So you should either quit fishing that deep of water or keep one or two and get out of there and quit wasting fish.
This can be true, but isn't 100%. Some will turn over, some will be just fine. We catch them in November off bridge pilings in 60' of water. The ones that turn over, their swim bladder either needs to be punctured (fizzed), or you need to help them get on their way. Here is a video on how to fizz them. ua-cam.com/video/eY8FEsxt5CQ/v-deo.html
Why do they die when released from deeper water?
8-12 lb test? Wouldn’t get away with that on a clear Minnesota lake
Anything smaller than 8lb in MN, Northern's are gonna bust your line over and over.
