X Texan Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 I just moved from the deserts of west Texas, and want to know what gear is the best for walleyes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleeye2 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 While everyone has their favorites, for icing walleyes it's hard to beat a small jigging spoon, jigging rapala or minnow on a plain hook. Those would be the three options. Welcome to the North country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Hey X-Tex;Spent three years in Ft. Hood many years ago.Most of your bass rods, you will be able to use for walleyes during open water.Four major presentations:1: jig2: Lindy Rig (Kinda like a carolina rig, but with a slip sinker.3: Trolling cranks (minnow stlye works best: Put your fat cranks away) / spinners (little Joe's)4: Old fashion slip bobber.Compared to bass fishing:You want light line (4 to 6 pound test).Also, these fish have a tendancy to be more of a light biter, so feeding line is very common. Good Luck!!!------------------Let 'em go so they can grow!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
