The key is patience, I fished it 3 weeks ago & fished for 6 hrs before for my 1st bite. However, the bite turned on for about 2 hours & pulled 2 keeper eyes & missed a bunch. It's tough to set the hook, 20 ft above the water, at least that what I tell myself.
I've fished Green River lake & Carr Creek lake in the spring. I hate to say it, but it's been a process of elimination for Green. I've hit just about every "walleye" spot in the Robinson Creek arm, with zero results. Gonna hit the Green River Arm this year. Went to Carr Creek last year in late March. Caught a few small ones, but the bite was off. Marked a ton of fish, just couldn't get a sniff on any size. Gonna give it another shot this spring. It's a fairly small lake, so covering water is easy.
If you need to satisfy your walleye hunger, do what I do. Go to Canada or Lake Erie every year.
