cheap plastic fishing lures Weedless Willy Soft Bait – 3.5in Weedless Swimbait Olive / 3PK Tails 1 rattle lure and 1 popper lure. Klinch Shad - Blue Gill

First two fish I set the hook on, the line broke so fast the rod never even loaded up

Heres what Ive learned from years on the water: Use Electronics : A good fish finder can help you locate schools of walleye and identify underwater structures

For me, its finding a stick that makes me feel most in tune with the lure that Im presenting

There are no stupid questions in fishing

For hooks I just took some off other lures I have that I never use - I'll have to look into buying some good quality hooks for my lure making - for now though 'borrowed' hooks will do

Use a "search bait" like a spinnerbait or a crankbait to cover a lot of water quickly
