    Casting for walleye is one the most funnest ways to catch fish.You will have rod an reel in hand. So you will get to feel the bite. with smaller groups you get alot more attention from me to learn how to catch these great fish. i also use down rods to help improve the catch rate. If rod an reel in hand is the way you enjoy to fish than this trip is for you.
