The Ultimate Jig + Crawler Breakdown for TROPHY Walleye:

https://youtu.be/MfpApTD\_fPc

Jig and crawler fishing for walleye is one of the most effective techniques for catching big, pressured fish. In this video, I give a complete jig + nightcrawler fishing breakdown for walleye while putting the technique to work on the great lakes and catching multiple trophy walleye, including fish over 30 inches.

I break down everything I’ve learned about fishing a jig and crawler, including my exact setup, how I rig a full nightcrawler, jig weight selection, rod/reel/line setup, bite detection, hooksets, and the different cadences I use depending on how the walleye are reacting.

I cover:

* My preferred VMC Redline Tungsten jig setup
* Why 1/8 oz is my go-to weight
* How I rig a full jumbo nightcrawler
* Bottom jigging and subtle crawler cadences
* How and when I use a pendulum presentation
* Strolling suspended walleye
* When to use larger pops or faster retrieves
* When and why I upsize to 1/4, 3/8, or even 1/2 oz
* Rod, reel, braid, and fluorocarbon setup
* Bite detection and knowing when to set the hook
* Adjustments for wind, spooky fish, and changing fish behaviour

Most of these fish are extremely pressured Great Lakes walleye living in the ultra-clear water, where getting a fish to follow your bait is often much easier than getting it to actually bite. When artificials aren’t producing, a jig and nightcrawler has become one of my biggest confidence presentations.

Throughout the video, I show these techniques in real fishing situations and make adjustments based on how the fish react, resulting in multiple trophy class walleye, including a 31 inch giant and another fish over 30 inches.

If you want to learn how to fish a jig and nightcrawler for walleye, how to catch more finicky walleye, or how I target trophy Great Lakes walleye with LiveScope, this video covers my entire approach from start to finish.

Nice 30.75” walleye from the weekend, this one was sitting just off the break of a shoal on the windblown inside turn in 17fow, and she didnt think twice about the crawler. Had the crawler on an 1/8oz VMC redline tungsten jig head, its getting harder and harder for me to step away from those lighter jigs, they really love that floaty motion of it in the water!

This one smashed the crawler, full summer time walleye fishing video out on my youtube channel: https://youtu.be/J\_0Rbu17gv4?si=q8XekzfvDdk1kDGW

Caught some good ones on my last trip, here is the fattest one measuring in at 28.75" but weighing 11.44lb, just a crazy build. Here is the full Youtube video of the trip: https://youtu.be/J_0Rbu17gv4

Fish measured 29” and had some cool battle scars. The eye looked a bit odd on this one🤣 Full video from my day of fishing is on my YouTube: https://youtu.be/tQh7SsvKiVc?si=JlIBLMi-JJEHruAp

The thickness on this fish was insane. Fish measured 29.75” with a crazy thick build! Caught on video! https://youtu.be/tQh7SsvKiVc?si=74MkSkaEaA3In\_40

The colours on this fish were insane, the underside was borderline orange. Fish measured just touching the 30” mark. Caught on video! https://youtu.be/tQh7SsvKiVc?si=74MkSkaEaA3In\_40
