Weed Walleyes Using Bass Spinnerbaits

Featured Replies

Has any one tried this? I stumbled across it fishing weeds for northern pike and caught some of my biggest walleyes that day?

There's been some major walleye tournaments won trolling heavy bass spinnerbaits through weeds and timber so I'd say it's a viable technique. 

Caught my PB walleye on a 1/2oz chartreuse spinnerbait bass fishing in the weeds

It works, another technique that works well is fishing windy weed flats with a lipless crankbait but finesse it a little more. Instead of ripping it, just pull it and you can catch some good ones that way too. Not uncommon to catch them on spinnerbaits either.

Now i have used the spinnerbait in a area that has weeds cought a few in that area (mostly big) the bite stops and i pick up and move to a new area simlar with weeds and i keep doing this. my question is that the lake i am on  is loaded with crawfish the walleyes bellys are full and and they spit them up. has anyone used like a weedless football jig with a hula grub to catch them and if so what plastics could you use or sugjest to copy this? just  thinking of ways that i can have a second approch to catching the eyes other then a spinner.
