>>1643764I'd get a drop shot with one or two circle hooks to a small fluke (probably gulp or powerbait to add extra scent.) If you're on a boat I'd definitely find a 29-14 foot spot off a point on the lake and use jigging raps, rattle traps, or a small fluke on a jighead. Salted minnows will also work well if they're legal. Also if you can use 2 rods you can try a method I named "call and answer". I'm definitely not the first person to use the method so I can't say its mine. Anyway call and answer is where I get a small scented fluke on a small jig, and keep it right off the bottom. I keep my sonar honed in on that. Then on my other rod I take a noisy rattle trap and jig it until I see a mark on the sonar. Then I'll either jiggle the fluke rod, or just leave it as a dead stick and wait for a bite. That method is what helped me boat walleye and sauger in the toughest walleye fishing I've ever had in my life. Pic related. Sometimes if the bite is hot, they'll take the rattle bait. No matter what 95% of the walleye are gonna be 2 feet or less from the bottom. Keep that in mind.
