Look for the shallow wind blown rock piles, shorelines and points. Use your electronics to find good areas with your side imaging and plotter to find the big boulders and rubble. Put your trolling motor down and start throwing a Rapala DT-6 into the rocks. The Walleyes will set up waiting for the schools of bait to come through. If you can get on the back side of the rock piles and cast into the wind so the bait will be coming at the the structure naturally with the waves. I like using XT mono as it is more abrasion resistance and holds up better. Good Luck!
