Fish TV Zone Pro Fishing Seminar Presenters

Jeremie Brooks
DEEP WATER TROLLING
Jeremie’s love for trolling Lake Erie started back in the late 80’s when the Walleye bite was insane! Back then trolling Rapala crank baits for Walleyes from large planer boards was the program. Now Jeremie trolls the Great Lakes aboard a 27 ft. Tiara Pursuit. Jeremie has been trolling Lake Erie since 1987 and is the owner/operator of Trophy Taker Fishing Charters since 2004. As an avid Trolling specialist Jeremie has refined techniques used by amateurs and pros alike. Jeremie has two first place finishes in the past 4 years in Canada’s largest one day Walleye Derby which takes place in Colchester Ontario, the Official Walleye Capital of Canada. Jeremie is an active member of the Ontario Sport Fishing Guides Association which promotes reputable Charter Services across Ontario. As a member of Rapalas Pro–staff Jeremie has played a big part in the development of Rapalas new trolling series of Rods and reels. Whether its bottom bouncing for post spawn Walleyes or Downrigging for thirty pound Kings Jeremie can help you fill the cooler with trolling techniques from the past and present.
