Dropshot walleyes when they won't eat ANYTHING else

  • We scratched up 5 "eater" size walleyes for 3rd place in our local walleye league last night. They would not bite anything...until I plopped a dropshot right in front of their faces. 🎯 Great way to make specific casts at structure or fish, work fast yet be able to keep the bait right in the strike zone the whole time.

    Caught My first walleye while drop-shotting for smallies a couple summers back, I think people underestimate how effective a Dropshot rig can be for walleye

    nose hooking BIG minnows and using a stinger hook works good if they want bigger baits in fall. .

    I've hooked into Walleye many times while dropshotting...often I've found that setting the rod in a rod holder and dragging it 30-50 ft behind the boat while drifting picks them right up (I guess you could call that "trolling with a dropshot rig"). I tend to use plastics whacky rigged on the dropshot hook because nightcrawlers leave mud and guts all over the boat, which pisses off the wife (she can't stand a dirty boat)!

    If your looking for the best rods on earth, look up Kraemer Custom Rods and give Erik a call and get your rod built the way YOU want it. I have a 7’6” med-light xtra fast in my arsenal. Tight lines!

    Idky all the walleye guys have this technique and that technique with each season change. I'm also a walleye guy and I drop shot everything and it works through the year. I don't understand the rest of these guys hahaha 😅

    I'd consider this, but where I fish it's gobies galore. I lose so much crawlers to gobies.

    • @JustSomeGuy641
      @JustSomeGuy641 Рік тому +1

      Once water gets upper 70s and beyond dropshot is a killer option for eyes. I add a few floating beads below the hook and also use the vmc spin hooks bell sinker and your good to go. Try going heavier and staying straight verticle if you have a slow drift. Tight lines!

    Why pinch off part of the crawler?

    • @TargetWalleye
      @TargetWalleye  9 місяців тому

      The crawler will stretch out significantly once in the water...it gets wrapped up and occasionally fouls by re-hooking itself when not pinched shorter. So it fishes WAY cleaner. And then I also land way more fish that bite. When it's super long they'll sometimes just grab the back half of the bait, but when pinched I'd say I hook-up with 9/10 walleyes that bite.

    At what point is it no longer a leader? Lol 20'!!!! That's crazy long if your main line is only sitting in top. Whatever works though!!!

  • @integratirecarrotriver4026

    One question, why would you get more bites with a lighter weight?

    • @blaahster
      @blaahster Рік тому +1

      Less resistance on the line, fish will hold the bait longer
