All Eyes On Fishing's Podcast

String Em Up!

In our last podcast we talked about rods and reels.  Fishing isn't fishing without talking line.  The problem with line, there are so many types and brands that it can be absolutely brutal trying to figure it all out.  This podcast is more of a open ended discussion about types of line and less about brands.  It's a 20 minute starter for a life long conversation.

Rods and Reels

Which one does what?  We get asked this a lot.  What is the best combo for this type of fishing?  I promise you we don't have all the answers but we can definitely tell you what we like using.  When it comes to picking a good rod or reel or a good combo it's important to remember you can find great fishing equipment for affordable prices.  Buying the correct length rod and the correct action is as important as the brand you choose.  Some think a rod is worth all the money and a reel holds your line.  It all depends on how you like to fish and what you fish for.

Fall Night Eyezzzz

Fall is a great time of year to go out and find that trophy.  No I am not talking about that bull elk, I am talking about big EYEZZZZ.  The feed is on and if you love catching big Walleye it's time to not forget about the fall being the best time of year to catch that once in a life time trophy.  You have all the feeding of spring and none of the relationship drama associated with the spawn.  Trolling cranks in the fall high in the water column can produce big fall EYEZZZZ.

Fall 2020

In the spirit of democracy and in the interest of debating on how to catch more fish in the fall, we at All Eyes have brought in a good friend of ours Dan Giordano and one hell of a stick to help LEAD YOU TO THE NEXT LEVEL!  It's fall time and the fish are putting on the feed.  We talk where to find the fall fish and what to use.  Techniques and tricks for catching fall fish.  Dan will also be in our new Next Level episode and if you want to hear more of our conversation with Dan you can subscribe to The Next Level and not miss the rest of our conversation.

Being Prepared

It has to be said!  We have to talk about being prepared for anything when you are traveling to your next tournament or taking the family out on the boat for fun day.  It's a boat and things go wrong...ALL THE TIME!  It's important you carry spare parts and check your equipment.  In this episode we talk about the bad luck we have had and what we have learned.  We have traveled across the country pulling boats and the one thing I know for sure...If it can go wrong it will go wrong.

Snap Jigging

Competition.  The name of the game in late summer and early fall is competition with all the bait in the lake.  Bait has exploded in most lakes across the country and you are trying to feed a group of fish while they sit at a Golden Coral full of bait.  It's a tough time of year but there are still plenty of opportunities to have great productive days on the water.  Snap jigging a variety of baits is a great way to make your baits stand out and scream "I am dying...come eat me"!

Do You Swivel?

Do you swivel your cranks?  Jigs?  Do you swivel when you connect leader material to main line?  Or do you just snap?  This weeks episode we answer a listeners question on the proper use of swivels and what type of swivels we use.  Nope... we don't claim to be right on this one, we just give our opinion.  A little humor for you all and some talk about swivels.  

Summer Thermocline

It's hot and the water is warm.  Fish can be tough to find for most people.  As the water warms to the upper 70's and low 80's fish move to the thermocline part of the water column and they seek the comfort of the cooler oxygenated water.  Bait fish and other prey move to this same area and the suspending bite turns on.  In this weeks podcast we discuss a recent tournament where most everyone targeted those thermocline fish.  Don't miss Summer Thermocline.  

Big Bait vs. Little Bait

What size crank do you reach for in the middle of summer?  Do you go for the 3 inch jig or the 4 inch?  This time of year it's important to know the cycle of the bait and the ecosystem you fish.  Plenty of food for fish to eat means you have to either match the hatch OR be different and draw their attention.  Reaction strikes on big baits is a great way to catch summer fish.  Sometimes a smaller bait and slower presentation is the key for well fed fish.  Lets talk bait size and what consideration you should give that.
