Today we are back with another walleye fishing video and we are in the great walleye state of Minnesota! In this video we do some lead core trolling and talk all about one of the most effective ways to troll crank baits during the late summer period. Trolling for walleye with lead core is super simple and super effective. In this video we talk about where we are finding walleyes and what lures we are using to catch a bunch of these late summer walleyes on Mille Lacs Lake.
Thanks for watching!

Was in the area in mid June and had an incredibly large mayfly hatch. Some old dudes we talked with said in 35 years it's the biggest hatch they could recall with several large waves. I wonder if this produced some heavier fish from larva alone? Or combo that with the whole system benefiting from the hatch, everything healthier from forage availability? We lead core for muskie as well for the same reasons. Best videos ever. Always learning, always solving the problem. Like that your not full of yourself and relate the information well! Keep em coming!

Also, if you are like me and you dont like dealing with heavy line and/or braid, just split shot a crank or jerkbait. You wont have as much control as lead core but it works very well. Great video tom.

Great video Tom. Nautical to say the least! Millie Lacs is a great lake. We have a lake place about 20 miles North just outside of Aitkin. Thanks for the lead core and color tips... Always discounted purple - who knew. You and Cody fish well together, your friendship and ease in the boat is great to see. Keep on Tom!

2 questions, do you ever run lead core with planer boards? I've read that you shouldn't clip the boards on lead core. Also how much lead core do you put on the reel and do you use mono backing?

Question, when are you using a weight system like lead core to push a crank past its curve do you have to still consider its stock depth Beyond whatever the line will put you down by itself? So for example if you're running enough lead core back to put you down 20 ft would it actually be 35 once you consider what the bait itself will actually div

@jimordway9287 3 жыл бұрын

I only consider the length of the leader for the baits dive curve. If I have 20 foot of leader I figure the baits effect on that 20 feet and use the 6 to 8 foot per color, depending on speed, to calculate the rest.

Leadcore is great but a lot of guys won’t mess with it. A jet diver video would be a good idea. I bet there’s a lot of non-great lakes guys who aren’t familiar with running jet divers, 2oz snap weights, tadpoles etc.

Why leadcore over snap weights? I ve tried both and felt snap weights are more consistent at depths and get down faster and less line out to clean baits ect. your thoughts?

@jimordway9287 3 жыл бұрын

Leadcore smooths out the pulse of the bait.

@loboyd691 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I put a little metal clamp weight about 2-5 ft above the crank or jerkbait I use. It essentially has the same effect as lead core its just you have a little more control over the depth of the lure with that weighted lead core line. I use the split shot-clamp weight approach simply because I dont like dealing with heavier lines like lead core, braid ect.. Both work well for trolling deep with artificial lures, I just prefer the clamp weight to get the crank on the bottom.

How would you fish for walleye on Lake Roosevelt in Washington? Typically we jig in 180 - 200 ft and drift, but in August it seems to dust shut off. I have tried trolling various depths with downriggers and spoons and cranks, drifting with worms. We cannot use live bait in Washington. I've been skunked lately.

@jimlund4283 3 жыл бұрын

You will kill every walleye you reel in in over 35 feet of water as they cannot adjust the amount of air in their bladder. Lake trout and whitefish are they only fish that can adjust the amount of air in their bladder. It is called barotrauma .

IDG&F tagged a bunch of walleyes in Pend Orille trying to get people too keep/eat them and turned in heads it to the Idaho Game and fish biologists. You could catch $1000 walleye, and lakers are worth $15 each. idfg.idaho.gov/region/panhandle

Ok, so here in north Georgia we know very little about what you’re talking about…first, why wouldn’t you eat a 26 inch walleye for example? Secondly, our walleye are mostly in 40+ feet of water in the summer with water temps in the 86 degree range, would lead core be sufficient to get my Repala Tail Dancer down to depth? And would it be effective still? So far, in summer we fish for Walleye at night when they come up from depth. The DNR has been stocking 5 pounders for years in select reservoirs, best eating fish we have, but we need more basic info… right now most of us are struggling… thanks Tom! We watch every video you put out. Keep up the great content👍

@jimlund4283 3 жыл бұрын

You will kill every walleye you bring up from 40 feet of water due to baro trauma. In Wisconsin and Minnesota, most people release larger fish as they are the good spawners and contain more toxins. All large old fish accumulate toxins as they age. Smaller fish taste better and are better for you. There is a mercury advisory on every lake in Wisconsin for eating large fish . Mercury is a by product of burning coal.

@@TomBoley is there a reason why such a long leader? and I'm assuming you subtract the leader length from total feet for depth control, i.e. 100 feet out minus leader is actually 60 feet of lead core which would get you down @ 16' then add the lure depth.
