As a man believes in his heart.......so is he Change that self talk for starters.......if you think you suck at walleye fishing......well you probably will. It goes like this......"Hmmm, not getting a bite, yup, I stink at walleye fishin, might as well fish for something else" and then you quit after only a little effort.

MT, I don't think that way when I'm fishing. You need to know that I am a fishing addict., so when I'm out there fishing for em, I just keep pounding away and usually hooking up with smallies :P My point is, I just don't catch waldos and I feel I'm doing something wrong. That said, I'll try the point tip you gave. BTW I am usually in the park end of august / beginning of sept. I know it isn't the ideal time of year, but fish always need to eat  :P-Thanks!

After what PJ had to say I will try that out. Also, I do have a depth finder that I will have to run more (I usually use it for finding Lakers)
- Thank you

Wally, I already put most of that into practice, but the bit about trying the same spot again a few hours later is something I'll put to work. -Thanks-


KF, I will become one with bottom :) Not afraid of snags etc. and I've got a few tricks up my sleeve (or in my box) for retrieving stuck objects. -Thanks!


OS, Thanks for listing the jig sizes you use

ST, I've never heard of these but will look them up. I'm a fan of removing the front set of treble hooks on diving baits to help avoid snags


Thank you all for the input. Now I've got 7 months or so to put all this information into action and catch a mess of waldos.  ;D
