Re: walleye fishing
When river fishing, jigging with a minnow or crawler is your best bet. Drifting with a bottom bouncer/spinner combo works good. Lindy rigs with a minnow or crawler can work also. When fishing big bodies of water, pulling crankbaits along ridgelines at around 2 MPH seems to work best. Different times of the year call for different depths. In the spring when the water is cold, the 'eyes will come shallow and as the summer progresses, they go deeper as do most fish.<br /><br />As far as Walleye being the best tasting fish, I'd almost have to disagree. The main thing about Walleye is that you can make it taste any way you want. If your eating it without any seasoning, you're not going to taste much. Shorelunch over an open fire is good because Walleye will take whatever seasoning you want. If your eating the bigger Walleye's (24" or bigger), make sure you take out the lateral line unless you like fishy tasting fish. I think a properly prepared salmon filet has a much better taste than Walleye and I've been catching Walleye's pretty much my whole life.
