06/19/2016 12:52PMquote zski: "for me, last year in quetico, the 9mm berkley flicker shad out fished the usual favorite deep rapala shad rap sr9" That happened to me on Kawnipi a few years back. A buddy on the board told me the flicker shad was a killer and cheaper, but I love my minnow rap. I had my brother and wife use flicker shads and quickly made the change myself :) T |

06/19/2016 06:37AM Jig spinners. Orange and yellow 1/8 - 3/8oz depending on depth. Impulse plastics (floating minnow, leeches, etc.). |

06/16/2016 01:16PM It's a G Grub from Mr Twister. The jig comes from Bass Pro Shop, glow color. |

06/13/2016 04:06PM I've found trolling with cranks at depths ranging from 8-20 feet will find where the walleye are hanging out. If wind isn't too bad, switching to jigging can land a few more in that spot. I usually trip solo, so wind is always my greatest challenge for staying on top of the walleye.... |

06/12/2016 05:56PM Thanks for the tips everyone. mapsguy1955, what is that jig called? |

06/11/2016 08:47PM I use this for Walleyes in Quetico and they love it. I don't think I would use bait anywhere though. I usually out fish bait guys. |

06/11/2016 05:19PM I agree with what schucanoe just commented on. I have found if you can find a somewhat stained lake and find a 15 foot reef you will catch fish. |

06/11/2016 12:41PM In addition to the current and shoreline areas mentioned any reef coming up out of deep water is almost a certainty on lakes with good walleye populations. Slowly dragging a jig and tail over this type of structure is about my favorite way to fish. You also might want to give the Uncle Josh pork products a shot. We had really good luck with the baby crawlers last year. The optimum depth on reefs is usually determined by the amount of light penetration so wind action, water clarity, and sunlight can all play a part. Just try different depths and locations on the reef and you will generally find the fish. |

06/06/2016 12:23PM Walleye shouldbe fairly easy to catch right now. These would probably be hard to beat with a curly tail grub like a kalins. Spin jig |

06/06/2016 12:35AM Can't respond as to the Q but when I'm in the Wabakimi area we use either crankbaits or Gulp Impulse minnows on a jig and we do really well on walleyes. FRED |

06/05/2016 08:48PM One of my favorites Shad Raps in the colors of firetiger and black and silver. Depths of 10 to 20 feet have worked very well. Good Luck. |

06/02/2016 11:26PMquote mutz: "Jig and tails" Bingo! But don't forget some crankbaits for casting and trolling. |

06/02/2016 09:17PM I don't know when your entry is. If you are going in the next month or so, look for some current, it doesn't take much. Once you find some current, and its in the evening about the time the sun is setting, start jigging some plastic jigs or swim baits, use just enough weight to slowly get to the bottom in about 15 foot of water. If you can find some slight current this time of year at a depth of 15 foot, you are golden. If you find this spot, you will probably catch walleye no matter the time of day. |

06/02/2016 06:45PM How would you fish for walleye in the Q since live bait can't be used? I plan on being there the last week of June. Thanks |
