Walleye Jigs - How to Adjust Drop Speed to Catch More Walleyes

We've all been in the boat when someone starts thwacking 'em on jigs, and for whatever reason, nobody else can get bit. Oftentimes, it's small details in your presentation that can make all the difference, resulting in walleyes hitting the net vs. coming home empty-handed after an unsuccessful day on the water. In this video, we look at some of the modifications you can make to your jigs to either slow or speed-up your drop speed to potentially trigger more strikes!

This is one of the best videos I've seen lately! I gave you grief for milking multiple videos out of the Rainy trip last week, but this video more than makes up for it! Incredible! Thank you Nick, and everybody else involved!

[@NickLindner]

Thanks! I really appreciate this message!

[@TheDoughboy6373]

The visual effect is more convincing. I think we all had theories about this, but to finally see it, is an eye opener.

[@NickLindner]

Agreed. The plastic + hair test was especially eye-opening

[@elkoperchyshyn9066]

Thanks for doing this video Nick. I learned a lot! Great stuff.

[@dallasinsko3686]

This is truly is a good informative video . Bravo , good info.

[@BIGRANZ24]

It’s usually when someone has creek chubs on! 😂

[@danl370]

This was a really good video, was very interesting.

[@jonnymoore3268]

Awesome video. I’m eager to see more comparisons.

[@NickLindner]

Thanks Jonny.

[@catchfishwithchris]

This was a really useful video. Kudos.

[@NickLindner]

Glad you found it useful. It took a surprising amount of time to take the tank shots, but it was definitely worth it.

[@shawnfortier4972]

Hi Nick I love your videos. I learn lots when I watch your videos. And what about the 3/8 oz jigs? This video makes a lot of sense on what bait your using thanks for sharing tight lines Nick!

[@marcgagnon1679]

Sweet video 👌

[@NickLindner]

Glad you enjoyed it, Marc.

[@seanrivard1254]

Could you do a side by side comparison of regular swimbait vs ribbed swimbait?

[@NickLindner]

That's a really good idea. Will have to do that sometime.

[@derekpiehl85]

Great video learned quite a bit. Also mite be time to shave the stash off. Lol.

[@jonweaver2410]

Does all the Walleyes jigheads work in the Columbia River Oregon? Thanks.

[@daveengstrom9250]

In 1687 Sir Issac Newton proved that weight does not alter drop speed. That is in air. What does alder drop speed is drag. Especially in water with current. In rivers and such much more weight is needed in order to just hit the bottom. In Lake Roosevelt, for instance, one can't even get to the bottom without a 3/4 ounce jig or larger. The water just sweeps it away, especially when using monofilament. line. This is an interesting video, but I would have liked to have seen it filmed in a river with some moving water.

[@mjhound]

Drag or resistance is key not weight

[@NickLindner]

No doubt

[@andys1170]

Mustache game is on point

[@NickLindner]

Thanks Andy 🥸
