[QUOTE="KDM, post: 27146, member: 314"] As with ANY new body of water I fish, I start out with the idea that walleyes prefer windy points regardless of the sky conditions. I would troll (which is NOT my prefered technique) spinners or lindy rigs along the shoreline points, checking both shallow and deep, and all around the islands until I caught an indicator fish. If I can catch another fish along the same stretch of water on the next 2-4 passes, I would break out the jigs and pick the spot apart to determine if there is a school there. If I catch nothing more in say a half hour to 45 minutes of this, It's back to trolling for this guy and on to the next spot. If I catch nothing along the shore points or islands, it's off to the flats. At which point it's either stick with the spinners and such or break out the cranks and search for fish. I'm not a crankbait dragging fan, but will do it if that's the pattern to put fish in the boat. That is in a nutshell how I would go about dealing with the pictured structure above. [/QUOTE]
