[QUOTE="KDM, post: 164057, member: 314"] For Walleyes...........There are two reasons to slow down in my book. One: The water clarity is generally very cloudy so a slower presentation allows the fish to find and subsequently take your offering. The same goes for summer fishing when rains muddy the water. Two: Spring is spawning time and I believe a large percentage of hits are NOT to feed, but to protect spawning territory. A slower presentation puts your offering right on the bottom and thus has a greater chance of "Annoying" a walleye into smacking it out of pure breeding aggression. Take this for what it's worth. These are just one old guys take on spring vs winter fish. [/QUOTE]
