your #1 producing walleye setup/rig/lure that kinda thing

[Seeker of Clayface]

Angel Eye Jr. with minnow head is my top choice.

[Rick]

I have to say the Rattlin Varmint, Go Devil and Angel Eye Jr's are my go to's.

[giwoyna5]

From Mile Lacs to Gull to LOW to Ottertail my #1; definately an Angel eye with a minnow head. And don't forget the Vexilar!

[L_Cappo]

red glow buskshot or lindy rattle n flyer spoon red or perch

[L_Cappo]

i have been looking at the rattle n varmits.whats the difference between these and the buckshot????

[PerchJerker]

Rattlin Varmits are basically the same as buckshots, although there are some nice colors in the Rattlin Varmits. Angel

Eyes have some nice colors and nice flutter to them too. One of my favorites is the hammered gold Angel Eye.

There has been some discussion about this recently in the Walleye Forum, things like favorite baits and how to target fish, etc.

tyvm for the info

[Burnham]

giwoyna-forgetting the vexilar is out of my vocabulary lol

[randallt]

Mine is a plain red hook with a split shot 12" up. Bait #1 fathead #2 Shiner #3 rosy red. These obviously change from time to time.

[giwoyna5]

Mine too burnham, just reminding the others. Ya got to look out for those seasoned veterans that don't quite have the memory for those things. No offense you old farts.......lol

[Dan Brelje]

Any Jig Spoon tipped with a minnow head.

[Burnham]

Thorne Bros. Walleye sweetheart with a Pinnacle reel using a "Stop Sign" jig! Last weekend I tried 7 different jigs and rigs and always ended up back at the Stop Sign! Just something about it seems to work well for me on LOW.

[giwoyna5]

[I_Got_One]

#5 Jigging rap in silver/black and Gold/Black

1/2 oz northland buckshot rattle spoons in gold and also orange

[eyehead]

This year I've caughten a bunch of fish on the JR Flasher in blue, white, and red

[fishgutz77]

1/8 ounce and 1/4 ounce chartruese glow buck shots with 4 # test have out produced all others for me in clear water. reds in darker water. with only minnow heads. sure wish I could find a stash of old Ivan's crushers somewhere though. next best is the rattl'in varmit in perch for sure. The dead stick has to be #6 red gama and split shot w/ shiner. jig like you mean it.

[marine_man]

My go to jigging setup is 6lb dia Power Pro Ice, Tica reel and a Glow Red Angel Eye - ususally the first thing in the water when I fishing for walleye.

My dead stick setup is a little more straightforward - A Thorne Bros deadstick, Tica Reel, 5lb dia Power Pro Ice and a small gold kahle hook - around a size 8 with a couple split shot above to keep the minnow from swimming too far & to get the line down faster. All of these balanced on a deadstick holder - in my case a Rockn Reel, but a Rod Rocker or Rod Rocker 2 would also do the trick.

I have tried all kinds of different deadstick jigs / hooks and 85% of the time the small kahle hook is what puts the most fish on the ice for me from a deadstick.

Good luck!
