If you don’t like using live bait, walleye baits can also include lead head jigs that are designed to look and act like minnows, fooling the walleye into biting anyway. At the same time, you may find that you like some other kind of walleye baits better, and these may work just as well for you, despite not resembling a minnow. For example, you may enjoy using a worm harness or some sort of attractor bait and have excellent results. That’s because fishing is and always will be an inexact science and as unpredictable as the weather in Texas.
Your best source of information for the best walleye baits to use (as well as what is actually available) can be found usually at the local bait and tackle shops, either from owners and operators who see what others are buying and using every day or from other customers who are out fishing for walleye on a daily basis. As with anything else, walleye baits may need to be changed based on the season in which you are fishing, but following the trends, as well as making your own decisions as to what works best for you are the keys to enjoying yourself and finding success.
