Hello gang.
My grandfather died in December after quite the battle with Parkinson's. Before he became ill, he and my grandmother took 2 3 week long trips each year (since 1970), to northern Minnesota hunting walleye, northern pike, and musky. When I was a kid I was fortunate enough to go on some of those trips with them. My wife and I just got back from grandma's house, and looking at all the mounts on the walls along with the pictures, and grandma's stories got me salivating. Anyway, grandma is heading back up to Minnesota this August along with a cousin of mine as a sort of commemorative trip for grandpa, and asked me for some special baits to hunt those walleye. I decided on the 3.5" swim shad in the usual walleye colors, but grandma typically fishes hard cranks, or a worm on a harness. As someone who has spent half his life on the west coast, and the closest walleye for me are 6 hours away, I need some help from my CCM buddies on how to rig these baits for grandma. (and me if I can ever get back up there!)
Thanks gang!
