Muddy Water? Cans or Islands?
Heading out for the first time on new boat, and first time trolling. I've got limited opportunities for this activity, but have acquired all the gear and done extensive "youtube" research in the winter months. Very excited to say the least.
I'm sure the lake has been thrashing with the weather this past week. I was curious if the imagery below of the water clarity would be enough to send me to a different location, or if no impact?

Don't mind jumping around, but want to give myself the best chance! I'm sure this depends on the flavor of the day and where the fish mark, but in general... are Perfect 10s bringing them in or are we looking at depths whereas a bandit or deep husky jerk is more appealing? I realize the dive charts come into play too, but again first time pulling boards and without getting too granular just looking to keep it within my learning curve.
Sounds like I'll sit on 79 and see if anyone is out there tomorrow.
a question from an older dude
its been years since I've pulled cranks, looking at possibly reverting back to it for early season walleyes, I do have a fortune investing in walleye divers, thundersticks, power divers,reef runners,hot in tots,Mann's stretch15's, 20's and 30's but, no bandits.
I look at the bandits and they all look like a small reversion of the thundersticks I used to religiously run. My question is, has the lake feeding paradigm changed that much that would gravitate to the absolute necessity of having to go spend all that much more money on these bandits to maximize my efforts?
