When pulling bottom bouncers, it's best to use an electric trolling motor. When the wind kicks up you can even drift (motor upwind, drift down, repeat). Another effective method along these same lines is dragging a jig sweetened with a worm.
Fire up your gas motor when trolling cranks. BTW, I catch walleyes all the time at greater than 3.0 - 3.5 mph. But you need to figure out how fast the fish want it, as Lundman described.
