Video idea.... Go over your boat layout. Where you store things, rod holder placement, imaging screens and such and the reason why you have them the way they are. Might help people get more organized.
Tom - I'm constantly amazed at the number of eater size walleye you manage to catch. About 90% of what I catch is in the 20-24" slot -- Which is an awesome testament to the quality of fish in the lake.
Would also like to hear a little about boat control when trolling, especially when following the weedlines - do you use "Follow the Contour", iTracks, etc? Are you using the electric, the kicker, or both? Also, how important is having a kicker these days given the capes of the electrics? In my case (Merc 115, no kicker, 18.5' aluminum boat) I either have to pull a couple small drift socks to slow it down to the 1.2 mph range, which sucks, or run the electric and drain the batteries down....
Thanks Tom, great stuff. Do you use those plastic quick change clevises so you can switch out the spinner blades quickly if you notice that one particular color / config is working well? I also noticed that you are using Colorado blades - are there times when you would use Indianas or Willows over the Colorados, and if so, why? Also, how big of a deal are the beads - number of beads, color, size, etc?
Do you run live crawlers on the spinners, or do you ever run plastics on spinners? I’ve been experimenting with gulp etc. with little success, wondering if I should go back to real crawlers.
Thanks for another great teaching presentation. May have missed it, but I don't remember hearing you state what trolling speed you were using during the video. As I recall, you generally will not say it during most of your videos. I believe that you should always state your trolling speed at least several times in your video presentations.
Do you ever set the hook on spinner rigs? I feel like for the past many many years of running lindy's I always give the fish a second or 2 when they hit and then set the hook. But it looks like you don't really need to? They appear to hook themselves?
What are best lakes in northern Wisconsin to use these techniques. Ones with good amount of fish per acre. I CHALLENGE you to answer with actual names.

I was saying that to a friend. We watch what Tom does and do the same thing.
Being I live in Mercer and go to Hayward all the time. Thanks Tom !
In most smaller lakes I fish I don’t think color changes much but on Erie it’s day to day and sometimes the most important factor.
Agreed 👍
How big of fish finder can you put in your lockable electronics locker? 12" or 15" or two of either?

It's lake to lake up hear. Good to see alot of eaters. Northern wisco doesn't have a lot of lakes with a ton of big fish.
At what point of wind/ waves do you quit running boards?
Great information on pulling spinners keep them coming
Great video Tom. Your walleye guy. Lake Eire is going good down here! Worm casting
Always learn something watching your vids Tom, thanks!
As always...good information. Thanks !
Tom how do you hook your crawler also do you use 2 hook harness that’s what we use in the D river
Nice video be nice to catch walleye like that and that many great video always informative
Thx for the video Tom...🤙
Can't even Imagine how much time you spend setting up rods and tying knots etc...
Great stuff...love the vids!
Holy moly it's tom boley.

And don't call me Shirley

What boat are you running Tom? It's badass. Love your content.
Nice fish Tom great video 😎
Great vid Tom! Keep up the great vids, super informative. You make your own harnesses? Or what brand you buy?
What pound test our you running on the reels!

Nice video Tom. What model of boat do you have??
The background music was better in this video. Less nightcluby. Just a little helpful feed back...
Another great informative vid Tom. Thanks!
You should do a boat tour.
When pulling spinners along a weedline: in order to stay on the weedline is the TM following a contour on the Lakemaster map?
Looks like your clipping along pretty good?
Surly likes to add a challenge once in a while.

Post up your spinner set up Tom!!!

1.2
Good vid. What do you consider a windy day in Wisconsin? 10 to 15? 15 to 20? 20+? Asking from Wyoming.
20+

Not when trolling
Tom, are you using your bow mount trolling motor to troll in this video or your main motor? Thx and really appreciate your great content.
Did you say how fast you were running? 1-1.5?
Correct
I wish I could use more then one rod here... good old saguenay quebec
How come you never show us your rod set up? Harness or bare spinner?
Surly does make some good beer 🐕
The last fish caught doesn’t even look like your moving. Are you just letting the wind push you??
You should let Surly bring one in every once in a while ;)
He doesn't say much on camera
Just wondering where you are fishing that you are allowed to use multiple rods. Our regulations only allow one rod per angler.
Wisconsin....most of the state is 3 lines per person
Yea son!!

How much was your boat ?
Why do you think there is thumbs down 🤔?
