After struggling to try to get a monster walleye through the ice for over three weeks I got a tip from a friend that there was a better time and place for that than sitting on the hard water. The tip was to find open water, to go at night between 9pm and 4am. But the most crucial part of the success you’ll have lies in the selection and presentation of your bait. As well as a willingness to lose your bait on every cast! But for those brave enough, or crazy enough, to rewards can be pretty amazing.

Top start with you really need a spinning rod. Fishing at night with the kind of baits you’re going to use are best done with light line, long casts, and a very slow retrieve.
