Default Big Bondy Bait Pike!

Well we were over across the border in Saskatchewan. We were bottom bouncing for walleyes to finish out or limit. I decided maybe it was a good idea to slow troll a body bait 3 ft of the bottom and boy did it pay off! Heres the video of the action:

Dodger.
it gets a little tricky when trolling those baits at 1.2mph when your not holding on to the rod the tension needs to be low so the fish can't feel the resistance until you put your thumb on the drag and set into the fish. Then of course you have to adjust it back up to fight the fish back to the boat.
