The most successful presentation in the early walleye season has been a jig tipped with a shiner minnow. The fish will be fairly shallow on wind swept shorelines. Drifting is a good option. You will see boats on most of the popular spots, get in line on the drift. Be courteous and go with the flow. When at the end of the drift motor around the other boats back into position to make another pass. Please do not motor through the fishing area, the fish can be spooked by boats cruising over them in shallow water.

I like a jig with some green or perch color. Silver and gold can be good on bright days. White will also take some fish. Use the lightest jig you can to still have bottom contact.

Trolling crank baits or spinners is another option if you aren't contacting fish by drifting. Cover water till fish are found, then work them with the jig minnow combo.
