How are you going about it?
Easiest is trolling w/ crawler harness'. If your to weedy and/or shallow though, you'll want to use fuzzy grubs tipped w/ a minnow or leetch. 'eyes LOVE leetches!

[OTIS]

First look for weed edges around points or shoals, and try bucktail jigs tipped with half a night crawler or crankbaits/stickbaits.  If that doesn't produce try drifting if there's enough wind.  Worm harnesses close to the bottom in deeper water.

sounds like your problem is fishing waters with small populations.  You're going to strike out more often than not with numbers like that.  But you can't beat the tactics mentioned above.

They usually hit the jigs really light so be ready for nothing but a little tap or your line going slack.

Right now is probably the toughest part of the soft water to get into walleye.  By the end of September they'll be into their fall feeding pattern, and are much easier to catch.  During the fall bite I fish from shore with jigs or crank/stick baits at night.

Have you tried fishing at night for them?  There has to be some kind of minnow.  They probably come into the shallows at night to chase them.  I'm sure there are shiners or fatheads in there.  There are some lakes around here you are only going to catch eyes at night.  They come right into 2 fow to eat the minnows.
In that case I would use either a 1/16 oz jig or a floating rap.  Or longline harnesses.

I pull some of my best eyes out of a lake thats only 150 acres.

Ha, thanks guys, will do!~

still nothing. Maybe im just not giving it time. i am marking fishin on the sonar, i drop a line, either a erie dearie with a crawler, leech on a jig, or just a crawler on a jig and nothing. Ill have to keep trying though

[oldken]

try using a bottom bouncer and spinner rig tipped with either a leech or crawler go real slow so you can feel the bottom. keep bouncing the bottom by lifting up and dropping back. you often won't feel a bite they are just ther when you lift up. we get a lot of them this way on the st.lawerence. right now fish deep old ken by the way right now we are using white spinners

You've gotten alot of good advice already, but looks like you've got your work cut out for you on this lake, the population is definately playing a major factor in your hunt.  I also fish on a super clear lake for walleyes some times.  Being so clear I find the best presentation to be a plain lead jig (no paint) grey, tipped with a complete nightcrawler, and slowly backtroll it on the bottom, to cover some water and find active fish.  Try a plain jig if you haven't already, it really shines in gin clear lakes.  Keep trying into the night fishing anywhere from 2-20 plus feet.  Good Luck.

well, there is hope. a friend of my cousin's caught an eyeball on the lake while we were fishing last weekend. It was 24-25 inches and he got it on a lemon lime heddon tadpolly just casting and retrieving with various speeds. I think my problem was i was fishing at the wrong time. the water is much much cooler now and i think im going to get lucky now that its cooler!

thanks
