MONSTER Lake Ontario Walleye - FROM A KAYAK!

  • FINALLY! The Collin's Bay skunk is off my kayak! When I decided to go out that day, I never imagined I would catch the biggest walleye I've ever seen with my own eyes!
    I attribute it mostly to my Garmin Striker 4 Portable Fish Finder. Sure, I might have caught it anyways, but without being able to see what depth i'm in and what the bottom looks like, I may never have stopped at that spot to throw my oddly rigged xzonelures tube over the drop!

    Hey, I live pretty darn close to that dock, just bought a pelican sentinel 100x fishing kayak and going to launch at that doc soon! That's one monster fish you caught! I got a 3.5-4.5 lb bass near the bridge the other day by an accident lol.

    How do you determine which way to cast after seeing them on the fish finder ? Are they far away or right under the boat ?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  3 роки тому +1

      Generally if you're seeing them on your screen it means they are right below you. That goes for any fish finder using the traditional 2D sonar screen and down imaging. Once you get into stuff like side imaging and livescope it's a whole different ballgame.

      That striker4 portable unit has been a game changer on the kayak for me, and when the water is frozen over, I take it on the ice. This unit literally sees use 12 months out of the year for me and I love it!

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  3 роки тому

      This was on Lake Ontario. Colin's Bay, specifically. There's a pretty popular boat ramp on Bath Road next to the church. It's called the Colin's Bay Pier, thats where I launch from pretty much every time I go to Colin's Bay in my kayak or my boat.

    Nice fish! I have the same fish finder and I love it. I used a magnet mount to fit it so that I can use the finder on my kayak or boat. Also when I paddle around to scout a new area and find fish I troll a lure with the rod behind me and the drag set on very loose. You catch a good number of fish that way while getting the depths of water and identifying structure.

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  5 років тому +1

      Yea I'm really happy with the performance of my striker4! I can't wait to use it more and really dial in the settings the way I want them. I don't do a lot of trolling with my kayak though. I'm still pretty new to it and I haven't figured out a way I like while paddling.

    lol Nice walleye! I just ordered the same setup for my first season on the ice in over 25 years. Hoping it helps put me on the fish to get my girls into ice fishing. Also thinking I may try picking up a small boat in the spring and being able to use this unit all year long was a big draw for me. Are you going to do any ice fishing?

    • @jeffdicks
      @jeffdicks  5 років тому +2

      I'm in the same boat, so to speak 🤣 this will be my first year ice fishing as well. That's what made my Garmin unit a no brainer. Works on the kayak and on the ice! From the videos that I've watched on how it performs on the ice, I've got high expectations. I can't wait to give'r a go when it's thick enough around here. And you bet I'll have a video of my own about it :P

      Hey thanks so much! I went and checked out your channel, I loved the video of you catching carp with.your boys! I can really appreciate the effort of taking kids fishing, and the sentiment of conservation about teaching them on a resilient fish like carp over something like trout that can be a little more delicate!
