If you are interested,beginning mid to late March ,every weekend fishable night,we will take you on FREE WALLEYE fishing trips. FROM SHORE, you must be patient,once the bite is on it can be fast and furious! I will be there to help you land the fish. I do not fish,

I am there to help and land them.

Beware, once you are explained how to fish for them,I am not the kind of guy to keep correcting you. If you want to reel in 100miles an hour,I will not say a word.
We meet at the shop at 6pm go over techniques of how to catch them,what to use,what to do if you get one. In the spring we pulled over 150 fish all over 5lbs.(Largest was 13 lbs.) If you have never caught a WALLEYE,this is the time! If you bring a young one ,they must have a LIFE JACKET! My 12 year old wears one or he does not go!

     Please give 1 day notice(email fish@baitdave.com) prior to your trip,so I can prepare my wife for my disappearance.

    *Fall trips start mid October.*

    TACKLE NEEDED= Flashlight, proper outer winter wear(note in November we have fished in light jackets,depends on what weather we are blessed with)
Lantern,flash light.stringer(heavy one 20'), med-heavy action rod 6' to 7' (try to bring 2 per man, just in case the bite is fast and furious,if you get a tangle while the bite is fast and furious,this will keep you fishing!) Guys have picked up there limit in as quick as 35 minutes. Line 14 to 20 lb test,fresh,no kinks,no dry rot! LURES Husky jerks model #s (hj12) or (hj14), rattle traps, hot-n-tots, a couple of crank bait divers,your retrieve is key,will educate at the shop when we meet.Bring a couple of each lure we are fishing a rocky area. ALL LURES SHOULD HAVE A RATTLE IN THEM,,VIBRATION!! Of course that vibration will attract them females :-)
MANY,MANY FISH HAVE HIT <2FT FROM SHORE,as long as your bait is in the water be ALERT.
When you set the hook,no whimpy stuff! "CRANK THAT HOOK-SET"
   NET?? it is up to you, many guys have netted them and with that net have accidently bumped the line causing slack=lost fish! The walleye will set on top of the water after he is in,laying on top of the water.He is fooling YOU,he can dive/run at any time. DO NOT take his bait ,he/she may be playing possum!
    Then need the fishermen to be patient,I am not GOD, I am going off past and prior years cannot predict the future.
Also even though these are FREE for fun trips, I feel responsible for your safety and your success. If you walk away fish-less it bothers me,provided you did everything right.
   I am not a preacher, I will explain how to work the bait,how to land the fish if I am note close enough to get to you. I will not give any unsolicited advise once we are fishing. I will keep you updated on what they are getting them on.
   We do carry things mentioned at the shop & this website if you cannot find them in your neck of the woods.
