Smacking walleyes in a pontoon! (Premier Sunsation Angler)

It was a super fun afternoon on the water despite mother nature not wanting to cooperate! We borrowed a Premier Sunsation Angler, pointed the bow into 25-mph winds, and got to catching. I love seeing pontoons getting fishy-er! And Premier always has a bunch of cool new innovations in the works.... Next time (with warmer weather) we're bringing the kiddos with!

No doubt there’s lots of different ways to catch fall walleyes...but it’s tough to beat live-bait rigging with big 4-5″ creek chubs or redtails when it comes to sticking a bunch of future fish tacos.

Lots of variations to the technique – you can make it as simple or difficult as you want. One of the tweaks is tail-hooking your chubs to get more action out of ’em, which seems to work especially well any time you're squatting in a high-percentage spot and/or getting turned down by multiple marks on the graph.

Drop a comment below and let me know what you think. Thx SO much for watching!

I upgraded my boat batteries to lithium this season and could NOT be more happy!

I went with Amped Outdoors' 36V 100Ah trolling motor lithium battery system (which is two 36V 50Ah LiFePO4 batteries in parallel). I was able to shave off roughly 140 pounds by running those 2 lithiums vs 3 lead batteries, and of course get some amazing run times:

Which also freed up an extra battery slot in my boat, so I was able to plug in this 100Ah beast (only weighs about 24-ish lbs) to exclusively run all of my electronics – fer dayzzzz – instead of running them off of my cranking battery:
