For best results, try suspending a tiny jig from a bobber and throw it around brush. Walleye prowl in low light, generally feeding at night. But they get very hungry from April 15 to June 1, as the water warms and food is scarce. They inhabit deep water where sunlight is subdued by depth. Fish main channel drop offs where shallow rock disappears into the blue depth of the deep canyon.
Bounce jigs down the vertical slope or troll along the edge of structure.
It's best to use a piece of live night crawler to keep the quick striking fish on the bait long enough to set the hook. Down size the hook to get into some braggin' size gills that are really quite common in Powell but are definitely underutilized. Catfish are the last of the regulars. They get more aggressive as the other fish slow down in June and July. Look for them on shallow, gradually sloping beaches that can accommodate a houseboat.
