Trolling Tactics & Gear Setup
Captain Keith runs a trolling operation that's dialed in for Lake Erie walleye. The boat's equipped with custom trolling gear including quality rods, reels, and all the terminal tackle you need.

You'll run multiple lines at controlled speeds, using proven lure combinations and bait presentations that trigger strikes from both active and neutral fish. The captain handles boat control and positioning while you focus on working the rods and fighting fish. All tackle, bait, and equipment is provided – no need to bring your own gear or worry about having the right setup. This trolling system is designed for success, using techniques that produce year-round results even when conditions change. The gear is maintained properly and replaced regularly, so you're fishing with reliable equipment that can handle Lake Erie's quality walleye.

Why Lake Erie Walleye Rock
Lake Erie walleye are the gold standard for eating fish, and they fight better than most people expect. These aren't your typical small lake walleye – Erie fish run bigger, fight harder, and taste amazing on the dinner table. Peak walleye fishing happens during spring and fall when fish are most active, but Captain Keith's trolling methods produce catches throughout the season. Summer walleye move to deeper, cooler water where trolling really shines, putting your baits right where these fish are feeding. Erie walleye typically run 2-5 pounds with plenty of keeper-sized fish mixed in with some real trophies. What makes them special is their aggressive feeding behavior when you find them – once you locate a school, the action can be fast and steady. They hit hard, make decent runs, and provide that satisfying fight that keeps anglers coming back. The meat is firm, white, and mild-tasting, making walleye the perfect fish for anglers who actually want to eat their catch. Lake Erie's massive forage base keeps these fish healthy and fat, which translates to better fights and better table fare.
