You can try fishing Heidecke with crawler harnesses w/spinners or jiggin for walleye.Trolling slow around 1-1.25 mph.Look for drop offs and work the ridges.If you can get under the bridge(very low) like 5 foot the north side has good fishing on some days others is a hit or miss.Trolling cranks will work around this time also.I've caught a few decent stripers trolling there so beef up your line or leader to avoid break offs.Good luck!
