Glide Jigs for Walleyes 101 | How to Rig and Fish

Gliding-style jigs have become artificial lure staples for power fishing walleyes. Pro walleye angler Korey Sprengel breaks down two popular styles, 1) glide baits and 2) gliding jigs. He highlights the key differences and how gliding jigs add more versatility to this erratic reaction bait lineup.

Traditional glide baits are heavy and erratic, making them effective in deep water, current, or when speed is a trigger. The challenge is, their fall rate isn't adjustable without drastically changing the size of the bait. Enter the world of snap jigs. You can adjust snap jig fall speed by changing head weights and plastics -- this is often desirable earlier in the season (cooler water) or when fishing shallow water.

Rigging them straight is essential too. He shares a tip to get your threading distance perfect nearly every time. Like a crankbait, be sure to drop it over the side of the boat and test for a straight and true erratic darting action. Despite having different pull points, glide baits and jigs are fished similarly with a sharp rod rip, followed by a fall on slack line. Like jerkbait fishing, a fall on slack allows the bait to dart and wander randomly and unimpeded. A heavier power rod with a stiffer fast action is preferred, as is a no-stretch braided mainline. Sprengle opts for a large arbor (30-size), fast gear ratio spinning reel to pick up slack quickly, detect bites on the fall, and feel for bottom contact during the retrieve. And unlike a glide bait, don't avoid fishing gliding jigs around boulder fields and grass beds. Bottom line, both lure categories have their time and place. Consider putting the live bait down and trying these highly-effective techniques the next time you chase walleyes. ► SUBSCRIBE for more AWESOME FISHING TIPS: http://wired2.fish/YTSub ► SHOP WIRED2FISH GEAR HERE: http://www.wired2fishgear.com FOLLOW US HERE AS WELL: ► http://www.wired2fish.com ►   / wired2fish_official   ►   / wired2fish   ►   / wired2fish
