Gear for this water

It has been a while since the trucks came. The holdovers have spread out and wised up; downsize and fish natural.

For the walleye (walleye stocked 10 times here in 2026, stillwater)

Crawler harness	slow-trolled over flats and breaks once water warms
Medium spinning rod	6.5 to 7 ft medium, 8 lb line; sensitivity beats power here
Jigging raps and blade baits	vertical over deep structure in the cold months

Suggestions follow from what the state actually stocks here and what kind of water it is, nothing else. No sponsored placements.
