So a Saugeye is a hybrid Walleye / Sauger Allen ? How big can they get?

I've never caught a Walleye.  But, there's a lake that I fish that is stocked with Saugeyes.  And, we have native Saugers in the river I fish.  I haven't caught any of those in years, but that one Winter that I was catching them, was a hoot!  Most 1/8 jigheads with Twister tail grubs, but sometimes on minnows.  And, I've caught a really small Sauger on a Chartreuse-over-White Clouser with my 5wt fly rod.

Instead of putting the shot below the floating jighead ,in the past I just split shotted the rig and held it in a channel from shore for perch during low water .

Last Walleye I caught was in an Eddy by the fastest current in the area.

John we put a sinker on the bottom and tie the floating jig head about 18 to 20 inches above that, but the river here where we fish is from 3 to 5 foot deep and lots of time a fast current..

Thanks for that input Dick ! I have to try the floating jig head approach on Walleyes ,Funny, I have caught perch that way using a mister Twister Exude Hellgrammite .

Almost as good tasting as perch and 3 or 4 times more fun to catch. Most the river fishing is done with a floating jig heads with a twister tail on it. Lake fishing is some king of weight forward spinner with a crawler on it. I have caught 100's with 1/4 oz jigs.

Shad Raps, Husky Jerks, Keitech 'easy shiner' spinner rigs .These are the lures that have caught Walleye from 18-24"  for me in Rivers and Lakes.
