How's The Lake This Year ?

[kwall]

I'm taking a trip to BSL for a week vacation to find a walleye or two. I'll be staying in Bull Shoals and fishing that part of the lake.The past few years the lake has been high and wasn't able to make it . I was wondering if the lake was good this year and some ideas an what tactics , colors,depth and areas to try would be a great help -- I'll post my results

This year the water level is right about normal @ 654 +/-. The walleye & bass fishing has been good on most days & nights. Walleye are being caught on bottom bouncer & crawler rigs in about 10'-30'. Trolling or casting crank baits in this same depth range is also working. there is also a deep water trolling bite out in 100' of water trolling down 30'-50' with leadcore. Jigging spoons are also working in 20'-40' under schools of shad and on drop offs.
