I grew up fishing on 2 lakes, Milles Lacs and Winnibagosih. And we would always drag lindys or slip bob. And we always caught fish. I have been up north for the past 4 weekends and each weekend we fished a different lake. We caught fish but no eyes and those darn rock bass are a pain in the a**,

so I guess I don't know how to catch walleyes after all.

I looking for anyone and eveyones input, so when I head up north next weekend, to Strawberry lake, I can be a little more confident I will catch some eyes.

When its this hot, it can be tough to catch eyes. The best thing to do is fish for them in the evening, till about 11pm. In the outside of the weed edges, is where I had best luck lately.

you can also try using jig heads instead of Lindy rigs. Do you use spinners on your lindy's? Bottom Bouncers? Try changing your snell length. If the fish are holding tight to the bottom, try using a shorter snell. If leeches or crawlers aren't doing the trick, try some redtail chubs about 3" long.

Strawberry lake in Becker county? If so that's a very clear lake and a tough one for the 'eyes, i know of people that can catch em out there but it's mostly limited to early morning/evening. Lindy's with a crawler near sunken islands or trolling raps near any shoreline should get some fish...You will catch a lot of rock bass but might be able to get a couple walleyes mixed in, there are some brutes in that lake.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
