We do what the locals suggest. WE just go fishing with a camera and hope something bites. Biggest walleye was in the 13 pound range. Sometimes we don't get enough footage in a day. When it stops being fun, its time to find something else to do.
Fishing is supposed to be fun.
The Ely area is really nice Gooch. Never in WA holdzit. I sent the other fishing line back and they said ther was a defect in it. Lots of favorite places. Caught a walleye about every five minutes for two or three hours.
