  • I can’t tell you one thing this podcast has helped me with

    The fishing industry knows that most of us do not have an income that will reasonably allow them to make them the profit that they want.

    That is why these shows that are nonstop nonsense exist.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Summer Walleyes On Small Lakes w/ TJ Erickson | JMO Fishing 434
Q: What is the Hit List series and what is its purpose?
It's a selfish passion project turned educational storytelling venture where TJ uses the Onyx app and other data to locate offbeat lakes with big walleyes, then documents the process of breaking down those waters, including the unknowns and decision-making that goes into pursuing big fish while balancing conservation.
Summer Walleyes On Small Lakes w/ TJ Erickson | JMO Fishing 434
Q: How do you approach breaking down water on a new lake and pattern it efficiently?
Start with map study, forage base, and surveys to gauge habitat and potential. Then drive the lake to observe weed edges, bottom structure, and thermoclines, using side imaging and forward-facing sonar selectively to confirm patterns before fishing, and always keep an open mind about multiple depth zones and possible bites.
Summer Walleyes On Small Lakes w/ TJ Erickson | JMO Fishing 434
Q: What are your confidence baits this time of year when you're in different fishing situations?
Jig and crawler remains the go-to, with a strong emphasis on having a mix of trailing and reaction baits, and experimenting with new line and knot options to maximize hookups. He also highlights the value of keeping a jig-and-minnow option available for certain bites and mentions adjusting leader length and line choice to improve performance.
Devils Lake Summer Walleyes w/ Jason Mitchell | JMO Fishing 432
Q: Could we kind of narrow that down a little bit and just sort of get some recommendations or some suggestions on, you know, what would be kind of a good starter kit for somebody that's come in there for the first time ever or the first time in a long time?
The guest explains practical starter patterns and areas, emphasizing accessible tactics like bottom bouncers with various rigs, targeting both shallow and deeper rock and weed transitions, and adjusting line and lure choices to water clarity and algae conditions to maximize bite opportunities.
The Skills It Takes To Win w/ Jayden Wendel | JMO Fishing 428
Q: How has your gear approach evolved during the season?
I've leaned into lighter line and jigs, particularly 316-ounce Moon Eyes with crawlers, and using live-scope insights to time hits and manage line tension to keep big fish buttoned up.
