Used a lot of finesse techniques that were touching bottom like a jig and ned rig, we got most if not all of our fish looking at visual queues like visual rock humps, buoys, reeds, and forage.

We used my Garmin Livescope to find big boulders where there would be a few nice walleyes hanging around, the bite was tough but the fish were catchable right before dark especially. This fish was 25.5" and we caught a few more nice ones using a jigging rap or hanging a hair jig right over the fishes head.
