When the northern pike action slows use a 20lb monofilament leader. You will lose some fish due to those northerns teeth but you WILL have more action. Check out some of the new fishing lines available Red prism Swedish pimples are proven walleye killers. I hate to even give this secret out. Tie this baby on some 2-10 spider wire leader and get ready for some walleye action. New treble hooks should be slightly bent out with a needle nose pliers. I leave one alone and hook the minnow on it and seems to stay on better. Check your knots every time you go fishing or tie a new hook on.

Grants Guide to fishin knots
Ropers KNot Links all the knots you can imagine


-CHECK those tip-ups often raising them up to look at the minnow I get more strikes this way than anything I do I had fish take it right out of my hands!
