could someone please help me figure out how to get some walleyes in the shallow water sand flats. i can not get any thing to take my offerings.(rings,superdoos) always end up going back out to deeper water to get fish. i have tried hay creek,the y,and up by the dam with no luck.any imfo would be great.
Find a sand bar that sticks out of the water and has slope to deeper water. Pitch hair jigs dressed with a minnow to the shallow areas first and then the surrounding deeper water. Look for the current flow and let the water flow help direct you bait in the area. Any area with rocks and or sand right now should hold fish. Got a 10 lb walleye this week doing the above. Contact with the bottom is essential, do not use too heavy a hair jig, 3/8 oz tops, if jig will not touch bottom, move on, current is too swift and fish will not be present.
thx hoosier i will give it a try.i can not seem to get them on the rings or doos on light jigs but i will always keep trying.beats being at work!!!!thx again
