Nice report, thank you. My guess is perhaps your presentation is too fast. Its very easy to present too fast for walleye especially when you are excited. Try slowing down, experiment with not even reeling until the jig hits the bottom, sometimes dead sticking is best. I find steady retrieve is typically better than bouncing. May also get more and better bites by taking the plastic off and fishing half a worm on the jighead, keep it straight and only half inch or so hanging off the hook. The bite is usually extremely light, if you feel anything different dont hesitate to set the hook. Good luck, hope you get one soon
