Musky lures for Walleye

[RD9]

I love fishing Erie Walleye and the tournaments and one thing I regret not doing and told myself I would do this year is run a couple 8 to 10 inch baits on lead core for large eyes. In my experience there is no rhyme or reason to what or when a true big Erie eye will eat. Last year the biggest eye we caught had a silver bass that was 6 to 7 inches long in its belly. This year our biggest eyes came off a variety of the normal Erie trolling baits. Our biggest this year was off a wd spoon which has been our best for big eyes. Talking to a buddy whom works for the Dec he said during fall netting the eyes are full of extra large shad.

Just looking for opinions from some Musky guys on accidental catches of walleyes and if bigger baits really mean bigger fish.

All the walleye's I have caught on Wiley Jtd 5 1/2" muskie crankbaits have been 28 to 30" in length from Chautauqua Lake.

We catch eyes during muskie season on 8-10" baits trolling the SLR. Always solid fish.
