This one of my favorite ways to fish for walleyes. Last year, around memorial day weekend fishing a boulder/gravel strewn man made reef in shallow water with a leech and slip bobber we had to limit ourselves to one line in the water at a time. if you put two lines in you didn't have time to set the hook, haha. We also love to fish a creek outlet that has a shallow sand bar and a little current, and also a sand bar off the end of an island, and now we have weed edges to fish out in the boat. all hotspots: -)

Thanks for the video. I have a question. My slip bobber gets tangled with the hook or the weight almost 40% of the time. I use the same string slip bobber you use. I prefer not to use mono line at the bottom and keep the braided line because he braided line does not lnot break as Walleyes teat will break the mono line. What is the right set up for Braided line? Also, How often do you expect braided will get tangles with the braided line?

Great video. Always funny to me how folks who target certain species discount other methods. Methods they might find useful if they cared to try. I-ve heard a few say floats and bobbers are -for kids. - Makes zero sense, haha. It-s a great way to set depth and keep your bait swimming with the flow of the water. This kid is catching fish.

Out of curiosity how do you set the bobber stop if for example walleyes are 3 ft off the bottom and in 15 feet of water. I always wondered if anglers measure out exactly where the bobber stop goes on the main line. Is there a science to it or a good method to use?

-These are easy to use and highly visible --enjoyable. fishing-- recommend they are extremely valuable for going from a dead drift set up to a float setup. They save time and you don't have to re-tie everything to add a float to your presentation. -

Been having problems with my slip bobber where's it's on its side. But not on the bottom. Going to try adding that weight above the swivel you're using because I dont think just the hook and worms I'm using are heavy enough to cock the bobber.

Where are you. It looks like the Thousand Islands. My husband and I use to catch Pike 30 years ago using this method. Just came across this video to remember this method. How do you hook the bait? Tail or spine?

I like to use a bead as my bobber stop. You just put the line through the bead like 3 times. Then you can easily move it up or down. Also it's easy to see, like keeping the tag end of the tie.

Thoughts on baiting with types of plastics like Max Scent or other artificial baits? Do you have success in the spring on a pre spawn or post spawn bite on river current systems? Thanks
