    Wisconsin River..... The Dells! Used to love going on the boat/duck tours as a kid. Very cool landscape, and great walleye fishing.

    Wisconsin River. Not far downstream from the Dells dam, called the Lower Dells. Good spot, consistent walleyes and perch.
    30 min north, Castle Rock dam is just as good.
    30 min north of castle rock dam is petenwell dam. Consistently larger walleye and phenomenal perch and catfish!

    Well, my best bud was dropping in the river with his kayak and he texted me to say I just saw Tommy B. with his new boat and a good looking F150! I was walking the dogs back in the burbs of Chicago 😞. We enjoy your content TB and I'm a walleye now member. Cheers, JJ

    How Far Away??? Pend Oreille system in Idaho?
    Just got my boat finally after a very long wait and really looking forward to getting it wet. It looks like the Priest River Launch might be do-able in the next couple days. I have never went after Walleyes before and hopefully after watching all your videos I can get a couple in the boat soon.

  • @williamkilmartin7537
    @williamkilmartin7537 Рік тому

    I know this is a question with many answers.. but when jigging what does the bite feel like? Or do you watch the line to tell? I guess I don’t understand how you detect the strike while jigging?

  • @MrGruver1
    @MrGruver1 Рік тому

    I started watching you for info this winter I’m an experienced fisherman, have never concentrated on walleye but I think I’ll go watch someone that has some sense. Smaller rivers, which the Wisconsin is not. don’t hold exclusively small fish. Mississippi River has the exact same thing happening

    Eerie, first Mitchell shows up then a third mystery fisherman bops in and out. I am sure we can come up with some conspiracy theory like "editing" but maybe it was a ghost Walleye fisherman or BigFoot decided to show up. Of course, the next logical question would why does BigFoot need an orange jacket? So for simplicity I'm gonna stick with Ghost Walleye Fisherman. Thanks Tom and Mitchell (& ghost fisherman too)

  • @kathyklundt3520

    Hi Tom. Like the videos. I’m just starting to use jigs and jigging raps and what type of line do you suggest and do you also tie a swivel onto the line for twist also? Thanks

      Well I guess it fishes like a small River to me. It is a pretty long system. Kinda cool how it's all broken up by dams and lakes.

    • @matolius

      I was on the river when you were. Darn it man. This is my home stretch. Also I nearly landed a 100lb Sturgeon that night too.

    • @matolius
      @matolius Рік тому +5

      I know. It’s funny hearing him call this a little river system. It’s literally the most fished and most populated streatch of the Wisconsin. And I know exactly where he was at. He was across the river from rivers edge in the dells. Funny that’s where he was at because there are dozens of better spots to fish then that but too much current to film. Definitely not a lesser known location and definitely not a small river system lol

      He should of went 30 min north and hit the castle rock or petenwell dam... consistently bigger walleyes...

    You should hit me up. I can get you into a spot where you will catch the big lake size walleye. That spot that you filmed today is the most heavily fished stretch of Wisconsin river in the entire state.

    • @TomBoley
      @TomBoley  Рік тому

      Yeah. Cool stretch. We caught some really nice fish day 1....then they disappeared on us and bite slowed way down

    • @matolius
      @matolius Рік тому

      @@TomBoley they shut off because they migrate up and down. I’m sure rivers edge told you not to go past the narrows down river but that’s where you will get more of your slot fish. Up river after the dam there are some small breaks and Eddie’s but the current is heavy. Big fish hold up in there. Off the point of the rocks by the dam is called led alley because of all the snags but that’s the best spot to fish. Hard to film because of the noise though.
