    Spring Walleye fishing can be excellent if you can dial in the right pattern and presentation. In this video I catch a quick limit of Walleye while jigging worms on the upper Columbia River.

      Yes, but I've been riding the struggle bus here in NE Ohio. 1 walleye in 2 outings. Warm, sunny and very clear conditions are not helping either

    I don’t jig as much as I use bottom bouncers, but even when I’m bottom bouncing I use a bait caster with a flipping switch. I actually use my max dlc digital line counters because they have the flipping switch and they pull double duty for Kokanee fishing. The quantum accurist is another good bait caster with a flipping switch I have used as well.

    I use a quantum accurist pt. They come with a flipping switch and are built like a tank but really light weight. I use mine for lake trout, walleye, and whitefish in northwest Montana. Keep putting out the great content.

    Okuma makes a reel with the flipping brake that you can turn off and on. I will look at the one I have on my bobber rod when I get home and comment what model it is.

    Walleye has been really weird this year. With the water flow off lake Spokane. Water temps been cold. Got a couple 22 and 18 inchers last week bare super slow death with night crawler hook 3 onz bottom Walker . They would barley bite it then you pull it out of rod holder drop your pole back was they only way to catch them ..

    Tyler… watching this video, I gotta ask, doesn’t the right hand reel drive you nuts? Switching hands, reaching over to close the release. I went to left hand retrieve years ago and never looked back. Is it just what you’re used to?

      @@spiltmilt I switched back before my kayak days. The left hand rudder makes it even more difficult I bet. I have seen how when trolling you sometimes use one lefty and one righty on the corresponding sides of the yak. That’s an interesting idea.
