    Spring Fishing Trifecta! Rough Fish, Trout and Walleye/Sauger

    Spring offers some of the best multi-species fishing of the year, and in this episode of Angling Wisdom, Patrick Edwards breaks down his Spring Trifecta — carp and suckers, trout, and pre-spawn walleye and sauger. Learn where fish stage after ice-out, how warming water affects their behavior, and which baits and techniques produce consistent results from shore or boat. This episode is packed with practical, real-world tactics to help you make the most of spring fishing season. Spring fishing doesn’t have to mean targeting just one species. In this episode of Angling Wisdom, Patrick Edwards breaks down the Spring Trifecta — three groups of fish that offer some of the best opportunities of the season. Patrick covers where to find fish after ice-out, how warming water and spawning behavior influence location, and which presentations work best from shore or boat. Rather than focusing on a single species, this episode is about matching your approach to the season. Patrick shares when to slow things down with bottom rigs and bait, when to switch to moving presentations, and how changing water temperatures and light conditions influence fish behavior. The result is a flexible game plan that works whether you’re fishing from shore or a boat, bringing kids along, or chasing a short spring window before the spawn.⏱️ Timestamps0:00 – Welcome & What the Spring Trifecta Is1:22 – Group #1: Carp & Suckers (Pickerel rigs, worms, family-friendly fishing)5:11 – Group #2: Spring Trout (Reservoirs, rivers, and lure choices)7:43 – Group #3: Walleye & Sauger (Ice-out locations, low light tactics)10:01 – Suspended jerkbaits, snap jigging & spoon techniques12:10 – Putting the Spring Trifecta together & final tips✅ Gear & Tackle Mentioned in This Episode: (affiliate links) Pickerel rig with slip sinker https://alnk.to/9IffRrv Suspending Jerk Baits: Dynamic J-Spec, Rapala X-Rap https://alnk.to/9IffRrv Spoons & Jigging Lures: PK Spoon, PK Flutterfish https://pklure.com Spinners: Panther Martin, Rooster Tails https://alnk.to/9IffRrv Soft plastics: Paddle tails, Curly tails https://alnk.to/9IffRrv Monofilament line for snap jigging https://alnk.to/880kZi7 🐟 Angling Wisdom is brought to you by these awesome show partners: ⁠ PK Lures⁠: Use code "wisdom" for 20% off your order  ⁠TB Custom Rods⁠  Disclaimer: Purchases made using affiliate links may earn a small commission for Angling Wisdom at no additional cost to the purchaser.  🎣 Angling Wisdom Affiliate Partners:  ⁠Abu Garcia ⁠ Striker Brands⁠ ⁠ Berkley Fishing⁠  ⁠Kifaru⁠ ⁠ AFTCO⁠ ⁠ Pflueger Reels⁠ ⁠ Big Bite Baits⁠ ⁠ Fish USA⁠ ⁠ Okuma⁠ ⁠ Darn Tough⁠ ⁠ Camp Chef⁠ ⁠ Infinite Outdoors⁠ Fenwick  Fish USA  Pure Fishing Stay Connected: Subscribe to my YouTube channel: ⁠www.youtube.com/@anglingwisdom?subscribe⁠ Subscribe to Angling Wisdom on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favorite podcast app.  Visit ⁠https://anglingwisdom.com⁠ for more tips, tricks, and fishing content. ⁠ Instagram⁠ ⁠ Facebook⁠

    Pre-Spawn Walleye Tactics and Tips

    Pre-spawn is prime time for walleye fishing, and understanding their behavior can make all the difference.

Berkley PowerBait Rib Worms:A slower presentation option when the bite is tougher.
