Good news, as I plan to go out casting this week... would prefer to catch a lot of fish and have to let them go than go all day and get squat.

I'll troll if I absolutely need to, i.e. if casting is unproductive, but it's a hassle to slow the boat down enough, and I really hate setting up all the gear. Not to mention, it's a lot more fun to reel in ANY walleye on a spinning real spooled with 8-10 lb line than to just drag one in on a big baitcaster loaded with 15-20 lb stuff, but especially a BIG one.
