My good friend and guide Brian Nielson, of BJs Guide Service, was planning to take me walleye fishing on Potholes Reservoir last Friday, but after getting some intel on how the fishing was there, decided that we should go to Moses Lake. As many walleye anglers know, the very upper end of the lake is where things start to happen every year, and he had heard that it was time to try it. His friend Mike Wren joined us, and we ran all the way up until we were in five feet of water. We started trolling with bottom bouncers and spinners and I landed a 22-inch fish at about eleven ‘o clock. Mike put out his gear on side planers and that was the game changer. He started getting fish right away and continued to hook walleye on this set up. He showed me how to rig the side planers he was using, and I contributed a few fish, but Mike got the majority of the walleye that ranged in size from 15 to 22 inches. We had 13 in the live well when we pulled out the fillet knife. Once again, Brian put us right on the fish and we had a blast.
