There seems to be no shortage of spots to try either. Thank you again for sharing your advice. I’ll be sure to let you know how I do.
As with many waters, Starvation is subject to the "biblical system"...seek and ye shall find...MAYBE.

Basic concept of fishing is "you can't ketch 'em where they ain't".  So if you aren't getting any action, keep looking until you find active fish.  Simple? Yes.  Easy?  Nope.
Take TubeDude's  advice , same info he provided me with ( we stayed Thursday-Saturday evening this past week) and done very well. Although I don't have pics to back it up I think I can get an endorsement from TubeDude on reliability. Bought a new GoPro and never used one, I have plenty of video of the bottom of the boat just no fish, ran the damn battery dry. We stayed in the Mountain View Campground and launched out of that ramp. We covered a lot of area but found our best walleye fishing straight west of that ramp opposite side of lake along the rocky shoreline. Friday evening we caught fish from about 730-800pm till we finally called it a day around midnight. Done a lot of scouting Saturday morning with not a lot of action and decided to return to where we were the night before around noon, we caught fish drifting that rocky area till about 430pm when we decided to hit the highway as we both had obligations for Sunday. Menu of choice was chartreuse jigs tipped/untipped with crawler, but we also caught fish on spinners, night crawlers, and harnesses. Side note: we were there targeting SM, caught a couple along with a few perch, and about a dozen rainbow, but caught more walleye than anything else. Thanx for the generous info Pat, now I can scratch off walleye as one of my bucket list fish for Utah.
