Ok guys im new to walleye never even tried for them so if any of you can give me some pointers and what part of the lake to fish it would be appreciated.

I know you like the LS Arm so anywhere from Cedar Ridge to Price Branch. Jig and cawler combo is good on points but trolling cranks and bottom bouncing crawlers is best to cover more water. Have found them from 4 to 40 FOW so you'll have to try different depths till you find them. I would start in 15 fow and work out deeper. Lundy rigging shinners and crawlers is also effective if you have the patients.

I like to long line (slow troll) a road runner head with a crawler rather than use a bottom bouncer but if in deep water the BB is best. I'm not sure if they sell what I use but should find something close. I pour my own RR heads in 1/4 and 3/8 oz and add a #3 good willow leaf blade. Color doesn't seem to matter most days.

I like to troll till I find them then go back and work a jig and crawler or minnow and pick apart an area holding fish. Walleye are schooling fish so if you catch one go back and see if anymore are willing to bite. 9 outta 10 you'll catch another one or 2 fish in same area.

You shouldn't have ANY trouble catching walleye on Stockton but finding the bigger fish gets tricky sometimes. Lots of small walleye in the lake and they are usually willing to bite most days. Good luck and post pic if you hang a Hogg EYE!
