Pre-Spawn Giants of Green Bay
Show Date: April 11, 2026

This week we’re chasing one of the most exciting opportunities in walleye fishing — targeting pre-spawn giants on the Bay of Green Bay with Captain Brett Jolly. This is a time when true trophy fish are on the move, and while the action can be slower, every bite has the potential to be the fish of a lifetime.
Unlike faster-paced bites, this approach is all about patience and precision. Slower presentations and fewer opportunities mean you have to stay focused — but that’s exactly what makes it so rewarding when everything comes together.
After grinding through day one, we decide to head back out for a second day, joined by Josh and his buddy John, to give ourselves another shot at connecting with these big fish. The persistence pays off, as we hook into some impressive walleyes and experience exactly why this bite is so special.
It’s not about numbers — it’s about the chance at something truly memorable, and as always, it’s a great time on the water with Captain Jolly.
