My son just moved back to Oregon from Green Bay! I wish I would have discovered your channel before he moved to have you guys connect! Big walleye fishery out here on the Columbia River. Large numbers of walleye and BIG smallies!
Nice n simple. I've fished for Walleye on Greers Ferry Lake in Arkansas. You may have heard it has world record catches of Walleye .... YES in central Arkansas. My good friend Phillip Stepp lived here for a short while, super cold day (for here 17°) Phil n I go fishing, he taught me ALOT about Walleye, he lives in Duluth Minnesota. I totally fell in love with trolling and casting where creeks meet main rivers, it almost killed me to let this HOG go due to slot regulations. Anyway, really enjoyed listening and watching you. Thanks, Nick in Redfield Arkansas
This Jim Collins. Question, is the octopus hook a size 4/0 ? Wanted to make sure I was not getting the wrong size. Thanks for the video, great instructions on doing your own, which I want to do!
A good harness that I use and I highly recommend is a gold hook at the bottom and a red hook above with two purple beads and two green beads with the clevis then a green and purple blade
My buddy owns Warrior Lures. They also custom paint crank baits for walleye and they have a line of their own spoons for salmon and trout as well. I use their custom painted Berkly Flicker Shads for walleye and smallies.. Oh and the have spinner blades for your crawler harnesses as well. Check them out online..
Cody, in your walleye harness video, you show your box of blades, there are a couple of colors I see in there that I would like to get for my own collection, anyway I could get a color of them if I showed you and perhaps a place to order? Thanks Matt
Cody. I just started making harnesses for lake erie east end. I found a 10" long blunt end hypodermic needle. It is 0.050 dia with a 0.025 hole through the center. I select my beadsand clevis put them on the tube. Feed the leader through hold the line slide off beads pull leafer out and add finish. For frayed used leader i cut off barrel insert line through pull until besds are at tube work besds on tube pull out leader make a new one finsh just like making a new harness for us old guys who rule the eye sight its hard to put the leader through the bead hole. Question on your box of blades is that a compete kit you can purchase I f so whete. I like it.thanks got to go i just got a hit.
Good one. I’m 69 and I’ve been making my own harnesses for many years. I’m partial to slow death hooks and flouro for line.
I like how Cody is thorough but not wordy... direct and to the point.
Thanks!
Hi I love watching your vids and it is so cool watching you catch all these fish
Great tip on the noodles
Nice job Cody! GO PACK GO!!!

Typically 6mm

This is a backwater customs blade box.
Great video.. Thanks!
Do you ever add lead weights, if so where in line do you put them and what kind ?
In-Line weights from time to time, normally a couple feet in front of the crawler harness.
Great stuff!
great video thank you.
Cody, what size is that Plano box that fits the pool noodles? There’s a similar Plano at menards, but it looked much deeper than the dia of a noodle…
I believe this is just the Plano XL pro Latch not the XXL
@@CodyS Thanks! Yeah, my Menards has the XXL, and it looked way too big!!!
Great info Cody! Question do you prefer inline weights or bouncers?
I prefer to use snap weights!
@CodyS ok? Is that better than inlines?? Sorry new to the trolling game.
What size of barrel swivels do you recommend?
Normally a #1 is fine. Personal preference!
Can you cast these with a spinning rod? Asking for a friend....
Yup
@@CodyS sick
Where did you get your box??
how far up line do you tie weight/
I typically use snap weights. Otherwise the weight will normally sit in front of the swivel or loop.
Good vid
QUICK CHANGE RELEASE CLIPS - can't find them - got a suggestion?
Check out northland tackle
Thanks
What is the best length ?
Leader length doesn’t really matter. I typically will run about 3-4’
Use Dutch fork No Loss Clevises...you will throw those plastic ones away !
What leader do you find to work best which length do you tie preferably
Typically use Seaguar. And normally around 3-4ft
