"Cheater rig" for dirty river walleyes
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 17. 10. 2019
- I'm usually an artifical-only enthusiast when it comes to catchin' walleyes...but sometimes you gotta bust out all the tricks when it comes to out-fishing your buddies đ€·ââïžđđ§š.
This simple "cheater rig" straight-up catches 'em [!!!] when you're dealing with swift current and dirty water. We were fishing on the US side of the Rainy River near Baudette, MN. The spring walleye run there is no secret...but the fall run can be just as good-er đ thanks to massive schools of emerald shiners pushing upriver from the main lake...walleyes aren't far behind.

NICE fish brother! Good one for adapting and finding an off the wall technique. Thank you for taking the time and effort to post this and all the other vids. Glad I found you and your channel! Gonna check out all your stuff in the coming days
Found this out two years ago fishing my local river. One of my favorites now. Great video!!
I can't wait until spring, will be using this on my local rivers. Great video.
Really like your channel. Content is great as is your presentation. Thank you, thank you for not just showing us how you reel em in. Your explanation of techniques, methods, and showing us what and how you use what you use sets you apart and far above many other channels. Of course I'm subscribed. Thanks again
Thanks so much! It always drove me nuts when folks would show the "what" but never the "why" so I've tried to make it a point to talk thru that portion to help both myself and others try to learn. It's a work in progress but hope to keep making it better and better. I see your name pop up in my notifications and with comments frequently, and I really appreciate the support! đ
@@TargetWalleye You're welcome brother man! Just keep keeping it real! All the best. Merry Christmas
im gonna try this on the Columbia river here in washington. thanks for the info.
That's the way I fish for them. Good job guys. Try injecting air in your nightcrawlers. Works pretty good.
We call it a Carolina rig use it all spring in the maumee river for walleye run about 5 foot leaders
Love The tips!! always fun to see how everyone is catching them !
Walleye sammiches aplenty. Mmmmmmm!! Thank you Brother.
Heck yeah! đ
Awesome video!! Canât wait for open water.. still about 1ft of ice here in Northern Manitoba
For whatever reason dirty water river walleyes love eating bottom presentations. What us do for the fall greenback run on the red is a œoz to Ÿoz jig just barley twitching on bottom sometimes not moving at all and a drop shot hook about a foot up the line from the jig.
Try it out, works incredible.
what do you put on the drop shot hook??
The Red wing special. Use it often
Well done, lads.
Iâll try this on the Detroit river.
You Are InDeed A Very Special Brother Too Share ThisđŁđđŸâđŸđđŸâïžâïžâïž

Im all triggerhappy here. . . Lol
Great job on the edit, man. Twas a fun mid-week river run!
Great video! I love the way you explain and teach.
Surprise! I've been doing that for years and all you really need is a crawler or two.
this is exactly what we do here in the assiniboine river in manitoba
Iâm gana have to give this a try
We Love Your Video, we will give it a try!!! THANK YOU!!!
Hope it helped! Thx much for watching.
Don't say cheater!! Lol, Great video guys!
đđđ
been watching all these walleye fishing videos got me hurting to go fishing but all the lakes are still frozen but also the ice is too soft to ice fish
Nice job guys!
Thanks for the vid!
I know what Im trying next fall on the Wi river. Thanks!!
It'z ok man. Keep slaying them eyes!
Do you recall what action and length fishing rod you were using in this video?
I believe it was a 7' Medium Fast. But it was pretty powerful rod, and almost felt like a medium heavy. Needed that extra "oomph" for pulling the fish into the current.
Great catches love it đđ»ââïžđ
Wonderful fishing...
Great video!
Lol you guys kept pulling out mutant walleyes
Had the same thing happen Catfishing cut suckers this past summer.
What kind of bait is the salty??????
Subscribed! Cool video, what gloves are those, if u dont mind me asking? The wool ones with leather palm? Thanks.
Thx man! Sorry I missed this comment. Those are Fish Monkey Wooly Half Fingured Gloves. LOVE 'em!
Great job guys love your videos
new to fishing. What do you mean by 'scented'?
I wasn't adding any extra scent to it (with a spray or gel like you can buy) but those frozen, salted emerald shiners are killed in a salt brine solution and then cured in salt...which gives off a lot of scent in the water for walleyes to track down.
@@TargetWalleye thank you!
Figured this out looking for catfish, all I can say is please take this down. lol
Lol! đđ„đ
Great video what size bubba net is that the medium 20" or the large 24" cant really tell gonna try this rig!!!!! Thanks
Thx Kurt! That rig was definitely a day-saver. I have the medium-size Bubba. Absolutely love it for single-hook setups (pitching jigs, Lindy rigs, slip-bobbers, snap jigging, etc) but if you run a lot of crankbaits with bunches of trebles you might wanna go with a rubber net for less tangles.
@@TargetWalleye thanks alot Brett I bought one you are my go to guy for walleye fishing now Me and my son started to watch all the videos your in!!! best informative fisherman out there keep up the awesome job !!!!
@@kurtriedmuller8223 seriously appreciate the support and am pumped to hear you're liking the vids!!!
I pretty new to river fishing walleye. I am planning on fishing the Detroit River this spring. When you run this rig is the boat stationary or are you doing a controlled drift with the trolling motor similar to vertical jigging.
I like to do it stationary on high-percentage spots or places I've graphed fish. But you can absolutely do a controlled drift - would be killer through holes.
We use this same presentation on the Missouri river just upstream from lake Sakakawea and will second what âtarget walleyeâ stated. Find and eddy or a shoreline with some slack current are going to be great places to start mark some fish and anchor or spot lock your boat a lil upstream so the current will pull your lines right into where you marked those fish. If that doesnt work it def wont hurt to do a controlled drift downstream and then slowly pull your rigs back upstream to work over over a spot. Once i know where fish are hanging out at though my preferred method is def to just anchor or spot lock. Another thing is when it comes to river fishing i generally am not going to sit in a spot for very long if im not catching anything. While this is not always the case ive found that if i dont catch a fish right away or within the first 20-30 min (or at least am having bites or missing fish) i will try another area within the eddy or shoreline im fishing or completely pack up and try an entirely different spot. On the river ive found that if the area is a good spot odds are itâs probably a little staging area and going to be holding enough fish that i will usually pick one up pretty quickly. Very often times withint the first 5-10 minutes. Again this is not always the case but is a good rule of thumb. However if its a decent size little shoreline or something where the channel is on the opposite side of the river and the current is maybe only flowing apx half as fast as it does in the channel and my shoreline is say 30-40 yards long i cannot emphasize enough on trying out a couple spots along that shoreline. All to often i see someone try a spot like that out. Pull up where they think the fish are. And then when they dont catch anything they pull anchor and leave the area entirely in search of another area. When in reality if they had just slide upstream 15-20 yards or downstream 15-20 yards it would have completely changed their outcome. So again if you find a spot you think is going to be holding fish make sure to cover it in its entirety before writing a spot off. Good luck to ya and def report back and let us know if any of this info was able to help you land a fish or two!!
I live by the Detroit river go on your boat drift down the river with a jig or walleye rig bouncing your sinker off the bottom so you dont snag as you drift with the current fished that river all my life.
is that line actually sliding through that weight like a lindy rig? tia
Yes sir!
The line doesn't look like it is able to slip through the sinker. Maybe the swivel is stuck in the hole through the sinker. Should put a bead in front of the swivel for multiple reasons. Also protects the knot.
Alot of people will set their rigs like that. Im with you tho and def prefer to have my line be able to slip through the weight. In my opinion when they pick up that bait i dont want them to pick the weight up off bottom hence why i prefer my line to be able to slip through the weight. I feel like when they do pick the weight up is often times what will trigger them to spit the lure. But anyways ya up here in N. Dakota fishing the missouri river upstream from lake sakakawea either slowly pulling lindys and jigs upstream in slack water and then drifting back down is essentially the main way everyone fishes walleye around here as well as anchoring or spot locking with the same lindy or jig presentation.
This on Canadian side??
This video was on the U.S. side only. They bite anything on the CAN side (lol)
Thought you said in a previous video, that you donât like live bait in your boat...
Yup, I absolutely hate it! đđ Good memory. We only had bait with that day because we were going to be chasing sturgeon later. But gotta say, I was glad to have it with that day 'cuz it saved the walleye bite for us in that super-dirty water. Wasn't all that excited to clean up the mess it made of the carpet though! Thx much for watching.
Where can i find a few of those weights you are using? Do you have a link?
I'm super late to the party - sorry! Hope you were able to find some.
What's a salty
Salted minnow. They freeze emerald shiners and preserve 'em in salt. Fish love 'em up there.
Dam the fish are getting mess up
Great stuff!
What kind of braid are you using?
10-lb Sufix 832. Love that stuff for 90% of my walleye fishing. Sorry for the late reply btw.
@@TargetWalleye thank you. No problem.
Thatâs a Carolina rig to bass fishermen
đ No doubt!
Nothing Cheater about the lindy....Al and Ron proved that long ago..very cool.....if ya read this...do you know what made the lindy famous??
Some combination of Al's face and Ron's big ideas (lol!) Wish I knew if there was a specific event that really kicked it off or it was them traveling across the Midwest promoting it and showing people the new and much needed concept! Thx so much for watching!!
Looks like a truck at 2:20 on the left side of the screen,but the closer I look,may be a boat.....
What river?
US side of the Rainy River on the Minnesota/Canada border.
What's a eater size on a walleye ?
Personal preference and really depends on the body of water. For me personally, I like to keep 14-16" fish for the dinner table.
