Nice report Simon, thanks. There's some good eats there.
For me, when all else fails, a floating jig will usually pickup a walleye or two.
Many years ago, one of my favorite ways to fish was with porcupine quills. In faster water they wouldn't get carried off quite so quickly so a minnow, leech or worm could be held a foot or so above bottom. The quill served well as it offered no resistance and provided an instant visual as to what was happening with the bait. Good times.
Thanks for sharing.
