Fishing Techniques
- For Burbot
Fish near the bottom in deep water, especially during low-light conditions or at night, as burbot are nocturnal predators.

Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
- For Walleye
Focus your efforts around dawn and dusk, as walleye are typically more active during these low-light periods; use a slow, deliberate retrieve, as walleye often prefer a subtle presentation.
