will they be on bottom or will they be suspened i have been getting them about a foot off bottom in close
Yep and thats where the smaller/younger fish will stack up at. No thremial cline (spelling) in that shallow water. The big fish in deep water will stack up about 2-4 ft above it. Thats where all the bait will be and its real dark and cool down there. With just the amount of light that BIG walleye like. And that majic temp they seek out this time of year. And thats where the big feeds are. Bait+Cool temp.+ Low light= Big Fish. We've seen it for years.

Sorry guys, You want big fish and a lot of them. Then your going to have to work for them. If you want smaller fish,Then stay in close or head out to the west. Your choice.
