In South Central MN it seems like Walleye bites are never continuous. They may bite for 3 days max in one spot, then your having to look for a new spot. I think its because some of these lakes are so pressured and fished alot that they are not hungry and they get scared. Also with the weather, the weather always changes and the pressure changeschanges, all these factors will change how they bite. Although in Canada the fish always seem to bite...

Good luck fishing! And I hope this helped. Here's a pictures of a walleye I caught on a local lake in South Central MN on June 4, 2015

Got another nice walleye last night, good eating size. a few got away, but I think I'm on to them. Anyone else having any luck with Walleyes this open water season so far around here?

That's a good start, where there's one there's gonna be more. Keep trying different tactics until you find out what they are really hitting on. Don't be afraid to try other areas on the same lake with similar depths/structure.

I have had no problems with walleye this year. If anything the DNR has over stocked the lakes with Walleye. Small one everywhere, perfect size for bigger ones to eat.

 Yes, Walleye are always on the move. If the wind changes the fish move!!!! I will catch Walleye on an inside bend one day and on the next day find them 800 yards away on a point.

 ( 1 ) Learn to troll and cover a lot of water.  ( 2 ) ditch the anchor. 

 If you can't find the fish and they won't come to you, well you will just have to seek the out. Don't be a one trick pony.

The other thing, this time of year you want to do is focus on shallow shorelines with a bit of a bank around hard bottom if a creek is feeding into the spot so much the better, as well as weed edges on rock bars.

      All of those Polaris sleds from that era were notorious for flooding and leaking. I've still got a 2003 XCSP 600 Edge that my daughter rides. As you noted, you need to shut off the fuel in those situations.

      Yes, but it could make for an amazing walleye opener.

      How old is your belt?   My old Polaris 4 wheeler with belt drive was bogging at mid range to top end last year.  Changed the belt and that problem went away.

      Previous owner (22 years and 5,000 miles ago) said it was prone to flooding when sitting for a long time or trailering, so I shut the fuel off in both cases.   Primary is significantly worn.  I replaced several rollers and pins which helped.  I have two used clutches in much better condition that I could (and should) install.   It seems more like when I hit the throttle, but the bog could be from poor clutch shifting.  Will have to pay attention next time and inspect the clutches.  Thanks for the ideas.

      Nope, he beat me fair and square, all his.  This weather had been depressing. As it sits now we are looking at a later than normal ice out. I hate scrabbling with docks, lifts, boats right before opener. Also limits some pre opener crappie chances.

      In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller.  Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle?

      but if he really wants I can change the date..  
    • Wanderer
      As soon as I started reading mind went to needles and seats.  You might want to try just replacing those first?  I’ve only done that once before in my life but it made the difference.  A carb refresh in 8,000 miles seems reasonable.
    • Wanderer
      Good luck smurfy!  On getting drawn, I mean!   If it comes down to it, I know a guy that might be interested in a nice hide.
