Silver and Black Rapala, Fire Tiger hot and tot and Fire Tiger Rapala. My dads favorite AND go to lure for Walleye Trolling is the Reef Runner in Monkey Puke run of either a Dipsy Diver or Down Rigger. Every once in a while he changes things up and throws it on the Planner Boards.

RE: Confidence Lure
Any soft plastic all year round.....
in the early or late i like Topwaters....but thats just for the visual rush or for weeds that are too thick for anything else
only in very few situations do i go to a spinner or Crank.....
when i do tho i prefer the Mann's Baby 1 minus and regularOne minus......(for shallow water off course....buti have cought fish in 10foot of water on them tho.) the Spinnerbait is more versitile tho.....
the problem with thefast moving baits is that they are there and gone.... and alot of times fish dont want to chase baits.so i mostly always use slow plastic presentations, casting into cover or bottom structure.
Really it all depends on the Situation....you cant get caught up in using one kind of bait all the time....but usually i can scratch out bites with my softplastic/thick cover technique when nothing else seems to work.
