I have located where the walleyes are holding, my problem is I am fishing on a very fast flowing river, the fish are holding in a cut made from a slight turn in the river. I am using night crawlers with a small split shot about five to seven inches from hook. I can feel and see the bite, but I am having a hard time getting a hook set. I know it’s walleyes as I have caught five already. Do I give them line as some have suggested, or hang on to the pole and try to feel when to set the hook?

Dan- hi there! I live in Columbus, Ohio and want to get to a nice place, probably fly-in, where I can rent a cabin and boatw/ outboard for a week or so. I want to be as small a drive as possible. I’m thinking Ontario through Detroit for a route. I want to bring fish back home for the freezer. Probably guided at least for a few days. Schedule would be 2-3 wks from now. Suggestions? Thanx, Bill
