Throw away all of your bass knowledge. Buy a headlamp with crazy lumens. Prepare to fish like mad from 11 pm till 4 am. Cast till your arms fall off. Fish with your ears. Check nj fish & game site for lakes and rivers with walleye. Fish slow and systematic.

The struggle is real. Many of us are walleye vampires. Use at least 20 lb braid and good leader material. Mind your duo lock clips. By catch can straighten it out.

Post pics and tell us where you're fishing.

When you say good leader material can you be more specific. Steel leader? Mono? Test wt?

Right now my biggest pole has 14lb test on it. Is that going to be that big of an issue?

You guys are great at walleye, but I'll offer my two cents and suggest baiting with live herring in October on the drop-offs 20-45 feet down, and also jigging with Binskys same time of year, same structure. (Have to be sure oxygen is re-established some lakes; early in October, won't be, deepest structure. Test that by putting a herring down, and if it's a sacrifice, don't fish so deep. Also notice how deep fish mark.) For these methods, I used six-pound test herring; 15-pound braid Binsky jigging--you need the feel, but don't use braid setting bait with (steel) egg sinkers, because it gets tangled.
