Why these fit

For vertical fishing in muddy summer water, you want baits that stay in the strike zone and give fish a clear target. The best match here is Angler's Choice MinR 2.0 10pk because it’s specifically noted for vertical jigging and has a slow sink and subtle tail kick.

If you want more vibration and flash in dirty water, Pro King Spoons Pro Spoon Clicker is a strong choice because the clicker blades add chatter and noise. Pro King Spoons Walleye Spoons are also a good option for aggressive fish that will react to flash.

For a baitfish look, Lunker City 5" Fin-S Shad works well on a jig head or finesse rig when walleyes are feeding on forage. Walleye Nation Creations Soft Plastic Kits- 50Pcs is a practical compact jig trailer option if you want a smaller profile.

Technique notes

Start with the Angler's Choice MinR 2.0 10pk on a jig and fish it straight up-and-down with short lifts and pauses.
In muddy water, use a slower cadence but keep the bait moving enough to create a target.
With Pro King Spoons Pro Spoon Clicker, use lift-drop or snap-fall strokes to make the spoon flash and click.
If fish are suspended, count the bait down and work it just above them rather than dragging bottom.

When to switch

Switch to a more aggressive spoon if fish are active and you need more flash/noise.
Switch to a smaller soft plastic if bites are short or the fish are pressured.
Switch to a jigged grub or shad profile if walleyes are holding tight to bottom or want a more natural baitfish look.
If the water is extremely muddy and fish won’t track a subtle bait, go louder and more compact.
