[QUOTE="KDM, post: 263111, member: 314"] High water in the Sheyenne means the walleyes will be tight to shore in any small current seam. When I say tight to shore, I mean within a foot or two. If you can find areas that have vertical walls such as clay banks or rocks with a couple feet of water depth right off shore, you're in the money. Forget about the long drive casting. This is a time for the short game. Use small pitch or flipping type casts close to shore. Darker colors shine in this situation as does lots of action type tails. Slow steady retrieves allow fish to hone in on the bait whereas jigging actions will get their attention, but they tend to miss the baits due to the diminished sight pictures of the cloudy water that often accompanies high water levels. Get out there and catch'em. Good Luck!! [/QUOTE]
