[QUOTE="Traxion, post: 344310, member: 983"] I've tried to make a concerted effort to use plastics this spring for walleyes. I've used them sporadically in the past with decent results, but without too much effort. Yet this spring I've really struggled. Live bait is still winning 5-1 on plastics for me. I've tried fishing them the same way, fishing the plastics more aggressively, etc. and still just haven't had the success I have with bait. Heck I've had days where tipping plastics with bait was the only way to yield a bite. I've really liked the Moxi's and similar style ringworm type baits, along with the typical minnow style plastics. I've also tried swimbaits, Largo Shads, Storm swimbaits, Ripple tails, with what seems like not much success ever. What the heck am I doing wrong? I have full faith in artificials, love to pull crankbaits. But I have just really struggled. Any pointers here? [/QUOTE]
