In case you don't know ,when fishing for Walleye they'll be on the bottom. The go to lure is a fluke with 1/4 ounce jighead here. Just let it hit bottom and slowly bounce it back, several times I'd set my rod down after casting out to pick up another rod with live bait to check it and when I'd pick it back up there'd be a fish on, Was catching them in 20-30 feet water.
BTW, Walleye has gotta be some of the best tasting fish there is.

Deadsticking. Sometimes, mostly early spring or late fall when the water is cold, that's the best way to catch em. Less movement since they are not as active, plus less chance of them feeling
you on the other end of the line.
