Summary
One thing I would really like to add to this article is the fact that most walleye anglers use lures or bait that are too small to attract larger fish. Top walleye anglers have been having great success recently using larger salt-water minnow-style soft plastics (six inches in length) jigged very aggressively. Large fish, especially walleye, can be tempted to bite even if inactive if it's worth the effort. Keep that in mind when you go walleye fishing this year. Big is sometimes a lot better!
2) When retrieving your chosen lure for walleye, in slow times the experts recommend an in-your-face, slow retrieve. What I suggest is that once you find a retrieve that works, stick with it. There are times when snap jigging -- which consists of a sharp lift and drop motion with the rod -- will trigger walleye when nothing else has a chance. It really does pay to experiment in this regard.See the full content of this document
