Another Bonus Day on the Red Deer River

Christmas is a mere two days away and the unseasonably warm weather remains in Central Alberta. Well Colin and I decided to take advantage of the warm weather and chase walleye just below the Dickson Dam. We tied on a balanced silver minnow and dead drifted it 8 feet below a strike indicator. The takes were quite soft but the action was excellent for such a late day in December!

Take a look!

How to Tie a Balanced Silver Minnow


Build a chassie-I use a size 8 jig hook and a 5/32nd tungsten bead


White Marabou Tail


Silver Minnow Semi-Seal Dubbing for the body and add a red thread collar!


Glue on 4 mm eyes and fill between the eyes with your favourite medium resin!
