Gary spent Day 2 of the FLW Walleye Tour Western Regional event on Pool 3 of the Mississippi with pro Keith Carlson. They live bait rigged the whole day and caught two fish–a short one they put back but a whopper 10.4 oz monster that was 291/2 inches long!! Keith talks about their techniques used…
Well, Walleye Wisdom “watchers”, it’s over for me as I weighed just one fish today but what a dandy–a 10.4 pound walleye caught live bait rigging! My pro partner for today was Keith Carlson from Goodhue, MN. Keith had found a spot during pre-fishing just off the main channel where the current was conducive to…
After a busy, busy day on the water Gary interviews Jeremy Evans about their day catching walleyes on Pool 3 of the Mighty Miss. Jeremy has been hunting, fishing, and trapping since about age three!

Recently, while I was organizing trays of crank baits in all shapes, sizes, and colors preparing for the upcoming “big boy trip” to Canada a question arose. A lady friend of mine asked, “Matt, if you could only take one of those crank baits to Canada with you, which would you choose and why?” I…
I shot some video as I pulled out of the town of Prescott, MN, on my way to day four pre-fishing for the FLW Walleye Tour Western Division first tournament on Pool 3 of the Mississippi River. Caught two and let them go. Lost some cranks today while pulling leadcore with cranks and the nice…
We put the Lund Explorer in at Prescott at 7am this morning. We then worked our way downriver checking spots Dave and I fished the previous day. We caught only two and unfortunately lost some nice crankbaits, too! Found out that I am paired with Jeremy Evans for tomorrow. He’s a local from Hastings and…
Dave DeDecker and I put the Lund Explorer in at Diamond Bluffs early this morning. We pulled lead core and cranks on a commonly fished spot with no takers. Then we went to three-way rigs with double shallow running Shad Raps and pulled two nice ones within a short distance! Unfortunately, that was it for…
Gary caught some video of Dave catching a sauger on Pool 3 up at Red Wing. You can check the video out here. It’s not too big but Gary assures me that they got into some larger fish but he didn’t want to advertise where they were to all the other pro anglers. Well…maybe when…
