Dropshot rigs with plastics and fathead minnows are on fire right now when you find the schools! Look in 15-25 fow anywhere on the south shore. Also did some walleye trolling flicker shad baits in 18-30 fow.

Used a BPS silver 2.5" blade bait in the east end canal after dark. Using 10 lb Power Pro braid with a 12 lb Seaguar fluorocarbon leader rips the blade bait best having no stretch in the line and allows for solid hooksets. Rip the bait up 3-4 ft then allow it to swim back to the bottom before ripping it again. Caught several walleye over a 2 hr span, but only one over the 15" minimum.
