Great suggestions here- congrats Harsh Reality on your success! I got out Saturday morning and managed two in 45 fow off Seneca, one 3 lbs and the other 5. Reports I have gotten is that lots of boats got skunked- kind of like me that last time I went out! so you did well.

I haven't "graduated" yet to the more advanced tactics- with what you have sounds like you're well on your way. I still just bottom bounce harnesses that I tie with materials from Rainbow Sports. A watermelon pattern with a willow leaf blade was the ticket last Saturday. Most other times I fish the evenings using 5 chartreuse beads and Colorado blades.

Great suggestions on this thread and throughout the site. I only get out after walleyes a few times each summer so don't have as much to contribute, but agree with the comments about just trying different things and the key is really about finding the fish. Which still can be quite a hunt many times.
