Catching Walleye and Sauger in Rocks

    The best locations to find walleye and sauger usually
    have some form of rocky bottom.  A bottom with jagged
    and broken rocks of all sizes will hold more walleye than
    any other type of cover.  The challenge is to fish close to
    the bottom without getting snagged.  Ordinary slip sinkers
    are not effective in these areas.  You will constantly be
    snagged on the bottom.  Slip-bobbers are very effective
    for these spots.

    Find out the depth and set the slip bobber about a foot above the bottom.  This will keep you near the fish and above the snags.   Crankbaits and minnow
    plugs are also popular for fishing in the rocks.  The lip of the crank baits and minnow plugs will usually hit the rocks on the bottom and bounce off of
    them.  These baits will help you work along the bottom without getting caught up in snags.
