    I love sitting on the balcony at Gino's, watching people try to navigate that launch. It can be pretty comical.

    Thank you Eric-great tips! Geneva’s very tough to fish. Thanks again for adding pieces to the puzzle!

    A very accurate assessment of Geneva Lake. Your success that day blew me away. Great content again. Pig walleye, SM over 20" and a laker - that fish alone would have made my day. I have been resisting video fishing AKA forward facing sonar but this video more than any others I have seen has me rethinking things. For now I'm a one trick pony for summer walleye, finding bait out in the abyss and pulling generally cranks and some spinners w lead or snap weights. I think we all would prefer the rod in hand and the Panoptix or other brands make that possible. Here is hoping that the guys at Garmin find a LVS34 (?) that they can give you to show case their newest 'ducer. Tight lines!

    I can relate to the boat launch scenario. My cousin was trying to launch the boat with my brother, and my bro said the trailer was floating with the boat! They figured out quickly, the boat was still strapped down to the trailer. Better that than not putting the plug in!

    Great video, first time I fished Geneva we were trolling for lake trout in August of 2012 and we caught 2 smallmouth trolling sutton spoons, one at 50 feet and one at 90, both were over 20 inches

    Super cool video .,, I live in Sault Ontario Canada and fish super clear water St Mary’s / Lake Huron an Lake Superior so I understand how hard it can be catching eye in Gin clear water ,,, I notice your chest gonpro dies a lot , what I do is use the media mod an plug into a beehive portable charge an the battery last for days it eats the sd cards but beats missing anything. 🇨🇦🎣

    Wow. I was fishing over tha last 2 weekends in a tiny river where you can't troll and I was thinking how can I present spinner with a crawler to walleyes. I did the same rig and casting to walleys without even seeing this rig before 😅😅 awesome video man 👍

    Better oxygenation in clear vs dirty water. Translates to more active fish,they tend to be less lethargic.

    Good electronics are hard to come by not everyone can afford them maybe a few videos on the old school ways without electronics. Maybe you could show everyone how to use a descending rig Taro has a cool one

      That's what I was thinking too.....😄. Obviously, he spends more time fishing than he does organizing his boat and tackle. Great video though and taught me a few tricks that I can use in Northern MI lakes that are very similar to Geneva. Charlevoix, Burt, Mullet, etc.

    1/2 or 3/8? Video you said 1/2 the video descriptiom says 3/8...Also your dealers in the locator do not carry your spoons...Two locations I called and visited did not carry your spoon..Both in wisconsin...online only in wisconsin?

    You might as well keep these fish because walleye pulled up from more than ~ 30' are going to die.

    Search them out on the radar and drop any lure for them to bite.
