Frisch: A look ahead – walleyes
Mike Frisch aims to enhance forward-facing sonar skills in 2026 to locate eater-size and larger walleyes at favored Minnesota and South Dakota fishing destinations.
- For the coming year, Mike Frisch, co-host of the Fishing the Midwest TV series, plans walleye trips focused on forward-facing sonar skills at Big Stone Lake and Alexandria, MN region.
- After two seasons using FFS, Mike Frisch aims to improve skills, supported by guide demonstrations from Marcus Quam and Tanner Arndt, who had success with the technology.
- Using jigs tipped with Z-Too soft-plastic lure and a slip-bobber with nightcrawler, Frisch reports recent trips caught 14-17-inch walleyes and about a dozen 18-23-inch fish.

- Continuing to refine forward-facing sonar, Mike Frisch plans to integrate it more into Fishing the Midwest TV series and use Big Stone Lake's no closed season as an early filming base.
