How about a few more tips on technique. I have never had any sucess on Walleye. Not for lack of trying. Have decided to stick to Channel cats as a result.....[crazy]

well if you have never cought a Walleye now is your best chance.. just go down to the harbor go out to the north jetty and hook some, carp meat,white bass meat,sucker meat,or chub meat. cast out and fish just like your fishing for catfish..
and wait tell you get a bite and then you want to try and rip the fishes head off when you set the hook then just pull it in..
they dont fight very good so if it feels like your pulling in a sticker bush or a waterloged stick then it's a eye.. but if it realy takes off you got a catfish,,

[cool]Yeah, that really does suck! I'm sure they must be sending down Riece Stein to do a piece on it. You'll probably see a shift in "the locals" from the Lincoln Beach area over to there now, so maybe the good news in all of this is that Lincoln won't be as crowded for the next couple of weeks?! One can always hope, right? Guess I'll have to watch CH.2 news tonight. Actually, I think Riece Steins little fishing segments usually air on the Sunday evening 10:00 news.
