| 8/2/26 | Joel Nelson Talks Walleyes & Some of the Greatest NON FFS Tech - Bigwater Podcast Episode #109 | Joel Nelson has been in and around the fishing world pretty much all of his life. Captain Ross and Joel cover a lot of ground on this episode of the Bigwater Podcast, but they mostly talk walleye fishing and how Joel caught an absolute GIANT WALLEYE through the ice on Lake Erie. Joel also gives us some insight into some technology (NOT Forward Facing Sonar) that all of us have at the tips of our fingers, but most people aren't utilizing it nearly enough. The OnX Fish App is truly an amazing tool and we talk about how it will catch you more fish regardless of what or where you fish.Capt.
